The RBS Express definitely belongs here, along with the supporting facts, as well as the fiction excerpt that gives arguably the best description of what it was all about. Barksdale AFB had a railroad siding and its own locomotive to accommodate it. FWIW, I was there when word came that six 1CEG technicians thought by their families to have been off on yet another RBS Express to an unknown site, but were instead killed while conducting a preliminary site location survey in a place most of us had never heard of. Many of us wondered why the Base Flag wasn't at half-mast, only to be told that's not done for those who die in combat. Despite "Combat" being the Group's first name, nobody had a clue that would include ground combat, much less that ALL ground combat training would be conducted OJT - on the job. That's why they scored the USAF's most ground combat deaths. -- Pawyilee ( talk) 10:00, 28 September 2012 (UTC)
Instead of following the WP:edit revert discuss consensus policy, User:Lineagegeek decided to use the sequence 'WP:BOLD revert then 'cut/paste instead of move' that disconnected the article history from the content (which I reverted until a consensus is/isn't reached): 30 SW ( talk) 20:42, 23 February 2013 (UTC)
