New Egypt in The Hot War[]

The Tu-4 en route to drop an atom bomb on Philadelphia in May, 1952, instead crashed in a field five miles west of New Egypt, New Jersey after the plane clipped something while flying low. The crash killed all 11 crewmen on board and, mercifully, the bomb did not detonate.[1]
