I watched this PBS show a ton in the 80's on KCPT PBS Kansas City,Missouri. I have it on VHS tapes. One of the best parts was the ABM base in ND and shots of Nike Hercules missiles launch ready. The cold war was a war that is hard to explain to today's youth and no one seems to have learned anything (in my opinion) other than the fact that no nuclear exchange of any sort happened. Living with a huge amount of Nuclear weapons pointed at the 48 states is something today's youth does not have to live with. We did back in the day. Some think the ABM and ICBM were a waste of money & I disagree; we are all alive to this day as an example of why they are wrong. The show is kind of a hodge podge of cold war information. You see shots of the nuclear cannon, ICBM bases, ABM and SAM bases. If you are into the cold war this is a must see -- no doubt about it.
