        President Franklin Delano Roosevelt Fireside Chat to the Nation, September 11, 1941

        "When You See a Rattlesnake Poised to Strike, You Do Not Wait Until He Has Struck Before You Crush Him"

          Obama's stance doesn't surprise me considering his only military experience is playing with G.I. Joes and watching reruns of "Combat"....

          and as far as Kennedy is concerned......he ordered the US Navy to fire a shot across the bow of the approaching Russian ship if it did not stop........

          1 Oct

          Four Soviet submarines secretly leave for Cuba.

          25 Oct

          U.S. Navy surveillance of first Soviet F-class submarine to surface near the quarantine line (conning tower number 945, Soviet fleet number B-130, commanded by Shumkov).

          26 Oct

          The U.S. destroyer Joseph P. Kennedy stops, boards and inspects the Marucla, a dry-cargo ship of Lebanese registry under Soviet charter to Cuba.

          27 Oct

          Soviet ship Grozny crosses the quarantine line, but stops after U.S. Navy ships fire star shells across her bow.

          U.S. Navy anti-submarine warfare (ASW) forces surface Soviet submarines B-59 to surface .

          doesn't seem like too much talking was going on at that moment
