...President gets credit for new doctrine, McNamara will catch most of the blame for drastic cuts he has ordered in existing programs. Among them: curtailment of the liquid-fueled, obsolescent Titan ICBM and "low reliability" Snark missiles and a virtual end to the development of the Air Force's cherished Mach 3 bomber of the future, North American's B-70, as well as the perennially experimental nuclear airplane. These slashes are sure to bring cries of anguish from pressure groups (both in and out of the Pentagon) and contractors, but none will be so loud or perhaps...

...newspapers, radio and TV commentators beat the drums, the country went on a virtual war footing. The government recalled troops to barracks, ordered militiamen to assembly points, and deployed thousands of men along the fortified beaches on the south coast between the provinces of Pinar del Rio and Camagüey. Using the "threat to Cuba" as a whiplash to complete the country's Communization, Castro's government warned workers to get into the militia or be classified as "traitors or cowards...
