USAF Captain Ken Curry B-52 Pilot SA-2 Story from Vietnam War.

Former USAF Capt. Ken Curry talks about an enemy SA2 surface to air missile exploding about 100 feet from the left wing of the B-52 he was piloting during a mission in Southeast Asia on April 9, 1972. The B-52 aircraft is on display at the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force in Dayton Ohio. Interview by NMUSAF Public Affairs and is in public domain.

After it became operational in 1955, the B-52 remained the main long-range heavy bomber of the US Air Force during the Cold War, and it continues to be an important part of the USAF bomber force today. Nearly 750 were built before production ended in the fall of 1962; 170 of these were B-52Ds.
