#5 Anytime codes are compromised, the existing set is voided and a new set is issued immediately. Had this been anyone in uniform, it would have been an immediate career terminator. Zero tolerance and no sense of humor when dealing with nukes.

#7 I'm guessing what Shelton meant was that the found the key package after about 6 months? I'm sure someone noted the absence of the codes much sooner than 6 months. Don't know the crypto cycle but bet it isn't 6 months.
