I was trying to be nice and not refer to them as some might that sort of
folk.

Well, I doubt they were "hill folk;" living on the S. Carolina coastal
plain as they were, but "country," anyway. After all, who would one
expect to live in the "country?" ;<)))

google "atomic bomb mars bluff sc" This must have been a
different incident, in SC where just a bomb was let go, if I recall
it had something to do with a stuck locking pin or something like
that on the bomb release (I think it was a B-47) and a crewman
crawled back into the bomb bay and was fooling with it and it
released. ohshit. Buried itself pretty deep and tore a good hole
in the ground.
and you will a lot of hits on it. Add scetv to the search and you
will get the info about the documentary I have seen.
Here is the ETV story

They have a sequence on there where the family was on that old TV
show, What's My Line or something like that, the family that had it
land in their yard was a bunch of country/hill folk, the gummint
came and tore down the house and hauled it off, never paid them for
it, they lost everything. The family got a carton of cigs from the
TV show for their appearance. After some period of years the
gummint finally coughed up some $$ but it was too little too late.
