.yes , Kennedy had his mistake with Bay of Pigs and learned from it.
As for the missile crisis, Kennedy was a HERO in several ways : 1. He did NOT follow his generals advise to strike the missile locations. The Russians later confirmed if attacked they had orders to launch. 2. He did a deal with Krustchev ..we took our missiles from European location, they removed theirs from Cuba. Kennedy was under tremendous pressure but held firm his position to seek every possible way out of war .he saved the world. Kennedy was also progressive in other positive ways . His assassination was a horrible chapter in our history. The end of an era as it was. He had great promise to continue his legacy, cut short by ..the mob and others as we now understand. |

If I remember correctly there was a Russian nuclear sub off the coast of cube and they lost contact with Russia two officers told somebody ( I don't know what his title was) to launch the missiles because they thought they were under attack but the person who was at the launch button refused cause he said it could be a glitch , if he would have pressed that button we would not be here talking about it , We were so close to nuclear war That guy in the sub , Russian guy saved the world .
