ICBM Budget Blasts, Moldy Housing & Hot Dogs of Doom (Jul 10 24)

This week on Late For Changeover, the Sentinel ICBM program blows past its budget like a boot at a PX sale—up 81% and climbing. We unpack why Uncle Sam’s latest doomsday device might need a side hustle to pay for itself. Then it’s over to the Air Force, which is dangling more bonus pay like a recruiter with a new PowerPoint. (Spoiler: they still won’t tell you what your actual job is.)

Also in this week’s chaos buffet: a former Army family scores $10 million after moldy base housing wrecks their kid’s health, Joey Chestnut shows no mercy in a hot dog showdown against four soldiers at Fort Bliss, and a Guam commander turns Independence Day into a full-blown barracks block party. We round things out with the USS Thresher, a Cold War-era attack sub that launched in 1960 and tragically sank less than three years later.
