I think a little good will delay in military drills would be appropriate.   In fact I'd say more than they have considering at least what NK is putting on the table.

I agree. They should have cancelled them.

They should be excluded from flying considering they are a 60+ year old design :guzzle: 

nothing wrong with the B52's they have been upgraded over the years, solid airframe keep them flying, nothing like seeing a formation of B52's flying into a conflict to instill a little fear

The B-52 is so over built that right now there is a push to re-engine the later models and fly them 20 or more years into the future. The plane could end up with 80 years of service.
