One day at the beach in Boston when I was 6 or so, I asked my dad what kind of plane was making the stripe way high up in the sky. He told me that it was a B52 bomber carrying nukes to protect America. Thinking all contrails were made by B52s, I became and remained a very nervous kid until high school.
