Well, I know the Russians. I know what they want, I know what kind of people they are and how deep their bench is.

As I said, they would have overrun us in Europe in 1970, but it would have cost them a lot, and by the time they got to the Rhine river, they would have been in full retreat or decimated because we would have won the air war.

We would have also landed marines on their flanks and taken their ports.

I don’t know where this fear of the big bad Russian comes from. Maybe they have been successful with their propaganda. But in 1970, we were worried about the stuff getting started and the cost in lives, but there was no fear of losing to them.

There it is over and over, “1970”, 1970 and your personal connection to the Cold War, frozen in time.
