First pro-nuclear weapons argument I've read that nearly changed my mind!

[QUOTE="RDKirk, post: 73036314, member: 326155"] Well, read the Wikipedia article on [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Able_Archer_83']EXERCISE ABLE ARCHER 83[/URL]. There are also a couple of YouTube videos. They are all fairly accurate, except that none of them convey the four days of terror we experienced in the underground command post of the Strategic Air Command. For four days, we were scared to death, because while we hoped the diplomats were calming the situation, we were preparing for nuclear war as furiously as we could in case diplomatic efforts failed. I was briefing the generals daily, and they all wore grim faces the color of concrete. [/QUOTE]
