    Plane Crash in Little Rock - March 12, 1960

    At about 6:06 a.m. on March 12, 1960, I woke when I was being tossed
    from side to side in my bed. I ran outside. My neighbor was screaming that
    the world was ending. I looked up to see a man falling and his parachute
    was on fire. Another man was floating with his shoot fully opened. The sky
    was full of smoke and falling debris.

    A B-47 Stratojet bomber exploded at low level over Little Rock . It exploded
    13 minutes after takeoff from Little Rock Air Force Base, raining death and
    destruction on two separated residential areas.

    Three of the four crew members were killed and two civilians were killed
    in their homes. One crewman parachuted to safety.

    That's some neat but sad history tabdog. Exactly how close was your house to the actual crash site? I can't imagine waking up to a scene like that.
