===Nuclear war in 1983?=== | |||
This is the first time I've looked at this article, but statements (I removed this one) such as "By November 1983, the Soviets were close to mounting a nuclear strike, bringing global war closer than any time since the [[Cuban Missile Crisis]] of 1962." certainly need citations; this is not the only mention of imminent nuclear war.
