  1. With the question, Ben. Please consider this: To what extent did Nikita Khrushchev make the decision to place nuclear missiles in Cuba in 1962 primarily for political rather than military consideration? What do you think?

  2. The bibliography is sound, but there is no printed sources in it. A trip to the Barr Smith Library would certainly help. Have you checked our library?

  3. There is no log to this document. You need to go back and fill it in.
    Cheers
