Inside the Cold War: A Cold Warrior's Reflections de Chris Adams

Inside the Cold War: A Cold Warrior's Reflections

Autor Chris Adams
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 noi 2004
General Adams reflects on his experiences in the cold war, during which he served in both manned bombers and missile silos. He tells stories of famous and not-so-famous cold warriors, including some from the US Navy. Some stories are humorous; some stories are tragic. Having traveled extensively in Russia and some former Soviet Union states after retirement, General Adams tells us about his former adversaries, the Soviet cold warriors. In the process, he leaves no doubt about his respect for all who served so valiantly in the "strategic triad"-- the strategic command, the ICBM force, and the submarine Navy.
