Cold War Conversations

On 23rd Nov 1963 at Kunsan Air Base, South Korea a detachment of US Air Force B-57 Canberra bombers were parked on an alert pad each with a live nuclear weapon in their bomb bay and ready to fly at a moment’s notice. At 0400 klaxon horns aroused the crews from their slumber and they rushed to their waiting aircraft, for what they likely thought was just one more drill  But this morning was different. As the crew strapped themselves into their cockpits, they were told to await a signal to fly their war mission… With targets in North Korea, China, and the Soviet Far East, the aircrews instinctively knew they would be flying one-way missions.
