Group
says it may have found missing H-bomb off Georgia's coast
WASSAW ISLAND, Ga. (AP) -- A group says it might have discovered a missing
hydrogen bomb that the Air Force accidentally dropped off the Georgia
coast more than 45 years ago. Derek Duke, a retired Air Force colonel,
and others used equipment that detects radiation and large metal objects
Tuesday to scour an area the size of a football field in Wassau Sound,
a shallow area near Tybee Beach. Duke said that radiation levels were
seven to 10 times greater than normal at one spot. The group then detected
a massive underwater object, he said. (7/21/2004 12:59:12 PM)
