Bacevich notes the remarkable co-dependence of Curtis LeMay and Betty Friedan: “Postwar foreign policy derived its legitimacy from a widely shared perception that power was being exercised abroad to facilitate the creation of a more perfect union at home. In this sense, General Curtis LeMay’s nuclear strike force, the Strategic Air Command (SAC) – as a manifestation of American might as well as a central component of the postwar military-industrial complex – helped foster the conditions from which Betty Friedan’s National Organization for Women emerged.”
