IT BEGAN ON THIS DAY

cuban missel crisis 1 

Tuesday, October 16, 1962…After learning of the presence of missile

bases in Cuba, President John F. Kennedy convened his

 Executive Committee to consider America’s options.

NOTE: The docudrama “Thirteen Day’s” (2000) is a good movie about this event.
