Today in 1962, the last B-52 and the last B-58 both rolled off their respective assembly lines. You can read the extended stories here and here. While the B-58 is long gone, it is strange to think that the USAF is still flying a fleet of 55+ year old B-52s.
Of course something much, much stranger had debuted the day before. But we won't go into all that right now.
