Secrets of the Cuban Missile Crisis - Presenter: Gerald Weston
The Cuban missile crisis of 1962 nearly brought the world to the unthinkable, a nuclear exchange between the United States and the Soviet Union -- in popular parlance, Armageddon. Although it was understood during those 13 tense days of October, that it was a close call, what we know today is enough to send chills through the spine of the most calloused individual. The well-being of the entire world, including here in Canada, was at stake.
