George Peter Nanos George Peter ( Pete ) Nanos is a former director of the Los Alamos National Laboratory and Vice Admiral in the US Navy . Having served from January 2003 to May 2005 , he was one of the shortest serving directors of the laboratory . Early life . Nanos is from Bedford , New Hampshire . He received his bachelors degree at the United States Naval Academy in 1967 and his doctorate in physics from Princeton University in 1974 . Los Alamos . He took the helm at Los Alamos in the wake of a string of allegations and scandals involving security , safety and business issues . Initially he was given the title " director " , but in July 2003 he was made a permanent director by the University of California without any further search . Controversy continued during his tenure including : a case of suspected missing classified disks ( which turned out never existed , but were thought to be missing due to a flawed LANL procedure for tracking the bar codes affixed to classified media ) , improper charges on lab credit cards , and a student injuring her eye with a laser ( PDF ) . Nanos made the unprecedented decision to stop all normal operations of core functions at the lab for nearly seven months ( July 2004 to January 2005 ) to examine and supplement the Laboratory ' s procedures and practices . The shutdowns could have cost as much as US $ 367 million in lost work time . During an address to Laboratory personnel , he characterized alleged rule - breaking scientists at the Lab as " cowboys " and " buttheads , " causing an uproar amongst personnel who felt Nanos had little respect for their efforts to function under what they saw as perpetually defective management practices . His actions as laboratory director were criticized in the pages of several scientific and technical publications , including Nature Magazine , Aviation Week , and Physics Today . Nanos abruptly resigned his position and left Los Alamos to take a job at the Department of Defense ( specifically the Defense Threat Reduction Agency ) under a Change of Station ( COS ) agreement with the University of California . Under that agreement , The University of California continues to pay Nanos ' annual salary of $ 235 , 000 ( 2005 salary figure ) . His separation agreement stipulated that he was legally bound not to make disparaging remarks about the University of California or LANL , and that his UC salary would terminate when he reached 5 years of employment , when he would become vested in the retirement plan . The year he left there was a large spike in retirements . An employee - run blog criticized Nanos and his management of the institution . The blog was credited by many with expediting , or even facilitating Nanos ' early departure . Nanos left under a cloud of employee discontent , missed programmatic milestones and doubts regarding the institution ' s future prospects . His successor was Robert W . Kuckuck , who took office on May 16 , 2005 . Applied Physics Lab . In 2010 he accepted the temporary position of Director of the National Security Analysis Department at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Lab .

Alternate Reconstitution Base An Alternate Reconstitutional Base ( ARB ) is a concept used during the Cold War by the United States Air Force ' s Strategic Air Command for the rearming of nuclear bombers . The idea was , after a nuclear exchange , primary SAC airfields would be destroyed and returning bombers would have no location to rearm their stores and reattack additional targets . ARB allowed trained teams to depart their home installation and create landing locations for returning bombers . Civilian Airfields . A few civilian airfields , such as Clinton - Sherman Airport , were originally SAC bases . The long - length runways were maintained , as well as the " christmas tree " alert structure for possible reuse by SAC forces in the event of nuclear war . Training . Various SAC communications squadrons would conduct ARB training by installing a mobile high frequency radio set at a pre - planned site and establish a communications net .
