EL PASO, Texas (Dec. 28) - The Air Force said Friday it will pay about
$12,000 in damages to a woman whose house was hit by a dummy bomb.

Gloria Aker's west Texas home was hit last July by a bomb accidentally
dropped from an Air Force F-117A Nighthawk on a practice run from Holloman
Air Force Base in New Mexico.

Although the dummy didn't contain explosives, it pierced the home's roof,
flew through a bathroom, slammed through a wall, then plowed 6 feet into the
ground. Later, a device used to locate the bomb discharged smoke throughout
the house.

Aker was in her home with her two children when the bomb hit. All three were
shaken but unharmed. The family has been living with Aker's parents while
the
home is repaired.

``My son and my daughter, they have nightmares. They're not too excited
about
going home,'' Aker said.

Attorney Mike Milligan said his client accepted the $12,000 offer this week.
A spokeswoman at the air base confirmed the settlement Friday.
