So, fortunately, nuclear weapons degrade rather quickly (literally within 5-20 years depending how well they are maintained), and can become practically harmless after that (especially if they're underwater). So those lost nukes aren't a threat to anyone at this point.

However, it is kind of disconcerting that we lost them to begin with.... And even more so that we know the USSR lied about losing nukes, and lost a whole bunch of them after the USSR fell...

America is clearly known as the most responsible of countries

So I looked it up. Apparently the American military has admitted to stealing 6 nuclear weapons since 1950.
Not to make anyone nervous....
At all....

There are 12 nukes lost in the cold war that America lost and has no idea where they went. No one knows how many the USSR lost... Good luck sleeping!

We had two of them get dropped in NC and they left one of them where it fell because it was too wet out. ( bit of an exaggeration but not much)
