Summary

"In the autumn of 1962, President John F. Kennedy received word that the Soviet Union had installed nuclear weapons in Cuba--aimed squarely at the northeastern United States. In the delicate political atmosphere of the Cold War, Kennedy knew he had to respond carefully. In this fast-paced program, host Hunter Ellis explores how the President devised a plan to use the most sophisticated photo reconnaissance aircraft of the time--the RF-8 Crusader--to gather the evidence he needed to confront the Soviet Union and put a stop to impending nuclear disaster."--Container
