Behind the G-Suit Tear Gas: F-16 Pilots Reveal the Untold Drama of Operation Midnight Hammer, And It’s Not What You Think

Now, the entire squadron is refusing to fly until the Pentagon explains who greenlit the midnight fire mission. One base wife just leaked a voice note of her husband—a decorated fighter jock—screaming, "They told us it was a decoy radar! This is murder charges, not medals!"
