Just Lost 5% of Our Stealth Bombers

Okay, more accurately, 4.76%. One of the 21 B-2's in the Air Force inventory crashed on Guam. Kind of makes you wonder what happens in the future as continued attrition reduces their numbers and the B-1s and B-52s retire. I sure hope that we aren't sitting around getting the Long Range Strike requirement fulfilled because as wonderful as the B-2 is, it isn't worth anything if there aren't any to execute missions.
