Thank you!
That was helpful. Yeah, it seems he didn't want preemptive strikes but defensive or retaliatory was more his style, which matches what I remembered.
Yep, Fidel was super-pissed when cornman pulled the missiles out without telling him (as was part of the deal with kennedy), and it strained Cuba-USSR relations for a while. Its hard to fault any party there tho, planetary nuclear annihalation avoided.
I agree, as much as I dislike cornman, I can't really blame him either.
