Cuban submarines were armed with nuclear torpedoes. The B-19 submarine, as all Cuban subs did, had Russian officers. One day they were getting depth charged by an American Destroyer. Two out of three command offices voted to use the Nukes. One did not. That man alone stopped WW III, as it had to be unanimous to launch.
Another brush with WW III was when the Mad Bomber of Kosovo ordered the British to attack the Russians at Pristina Airport and then took out the Chinese embassy.

When I saw this on the History Channel the other day it completely freaked me out. How different my childhood would have been.....

That was a scary time with old Wesley Clark, the bright one, in charge lead by Slick. And together they blew up the Christians in their “perfect war”.
