Robert McNamara, "Fog of War" questions
#4
Drew Phipps Wrote:Third question: McNamara states that during his 7 year term as Secretary of Defense (1961-1968?) that the US and the USSR came to the brink of nuclear war on three separate occasions, but he doesn't mention which occasions. I'm guessing that Berlin is one, Bay of Pigs is another, but I don't quite get the third occasion.

Prague spring?
