The commanders and their subordinates were reportedly let go after their units failed an inspection that tested whether the nuclear weapon stockpile at the base was safe and secure at all times.
The US Air Force fired six officers, including two commanders, from their positions at a key nuclear base in North Dakota on Monday for failing to do their jobs.
Gebara fired the commanders of the 5th Mission Support Group and the 5th Logistics Readiness Squadron from their positions of leadership. Four subordinate leaders were also let go by Minot officials. The Air Force Global Strike Command refused to name the officers who had been relieved of duty or provide more details on what led to their dismissals.
