Hagel says 'something is wrong' with nuke force

Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel says "something is wrong" inside America's nuclear missile corps. Hagel told reporters Friday that he is confident the problems will get fixed and that the nation's arsenal of nuclear weapons will remain safe and secure. He said he'll convene a high-level meeting soon to probe the problems.

 

Hagel was commenting on the investigations of drug use and exam cheating within its nuclear missile force, as well as a series of disclosures about security lapses, leadership failures and other problems among those who operate and protect the Minuteman 3 missile force. (AP)
