Almost completely ignored and forgotten are the Cold Warriors who spent endless hours living in tiny capsules underground in the ICBM sites, the men who lived in mall metal cylinders silently gliding hundreds of feet beneath the ocean waves, and the men who sat in alert facilities around the world just yards from their cocked aircraft.
These men and all the maintenance personnel who risk their lives (some gave their lives) to keep the Soviet Bear at bay.
God bless them all.
