[quote:Waterbug:MV8xNTM3MTQ2XzMzODc1Njc3XzNBNUIzNDg=] Spokane’s nuclear hot spots http://www.spokesman.com/stories/2012/oct/13/spokanes-nuclear-hot-spots/ [snip] There were nine underground missile sites within a 50-mile radius of Fairchild Air Force Base. Each site – or “coffin,” as it was referred to by the airmen – held an Atlas-E missile armed with a 4-megaton nuclear warhead. At the time, reports from Cuba indicated that the Soviet Union was building a military base there and arming it with nuclear warheads aimed at the United States. As President John F. Kennedy and his advisers wrestled with how to respond to such a direct threat while avoiding a full-blown nuclear war, pressure built at the Spokane missile sites as they got ready to launch. “Spokane really was the tip of the spear,” DeLateur said. “People in Spokane did know what was going on. There were actual nuclear fallout drills and the Air Force base was on high alert.” [/quote]
