Wonder if we would have pilots with the courage

to do what these pilots did knowing they were dealing with an egotistical rightwing war monger who goes around saying "why have nukes if we don't use them"? "I got no problem with bombing the S*** out of anyone who causes problems for America"

One can only hope so.

obtain a temporary safety deserve

I'm sure we still have some. Although not as many as we did back during the Cold War days since the libs did their best to de-ball the military and obama fired the majority of the combat generals. Hopefully "Mad Dog" Mattis (who obama fired) can put some backbone back in the military and replace those "yes sir" generals that are running the show now.
