Wow! I remember those times, but didn’t know details, of course. One of the museums I went to in Washington DC talked about Kennedy and how close we came. It might have been the Newseum. But it is something we should all remember and be mindful about. The missiles in the world seem so rogue now, probably since we are no longer fighting to be the leaders. Or maybe we are in secret. There are a lot of things we are probably better off not knowing if there’s nothing we can do about it.

That historic site is one of the most interesting sites we’ve visited in recent times. The docent did a fantastic job telling us about how things were.

We learned a lot about cold War defense in that one-hour tour.
