It was on October 22, 1962, that former president JFK told the world that the Soviets were building secret missile bases in Cuba, about 90 miles off the coast of Florida. And not only did he make claims to that, he had photographic evidence to prove it. The Americans and Soviets began the nose-to-nose confrontation over these bases stationed in Cuba. So, while a diplomatic solution was ultimately the goal, and as our US government tirelessly tried to pursue that, no one knew what was really taking place inside the Soviet submarine B-59, off the coast of Florida, and how one man, who was actually on our enemy’s side, saved the world from nuclear war. Find out who this person is and the circumstances surrounding this event on this episode of The Missing Chapter.
