Thermal curtains offer protection to B-52 aircrews
Matthew Yost and Jennifer Hoffman discuss a prototype B-52 Stratofortress thermal curtain they hold in front of a cockpit window Dec. 6 at Tinker Air Force Base, Okla. Reflective on the outside and rubberized on the inside, the curtains will protect aircrews from the blinding light that results from a nuclear explosion. Mr. Yost is a B-52 engineer, and Ms. Hoffman is an engineering intern. (U.S. Air Force photo/Margo Wright)
