Even the author of the Politically Incorrect Guide to the 1960s, Jonathan Leaf, made it very clear that ultimately, even without the CMC, removing the Turkey missiles would have inevitably happened since they were obsolete due to nuclear subs. And if you read that book, you’d realize he’s no JFK fan and generally paints JFK in a very bad light overall.
Yeah, I know they would have been removed eventually.
My point was JFK’s “victory” at the Cuban Missile Crisis was not quite the “victory” it was painted to be.
I don’t know if you noticed but i actually agreed with you regard nuclear subs (i.e., SLBMs) making the Jupiters obsolete.
