As with most human endeavors, war seemed accelerate creativity in many fields from medicine to methods of killing. The prediction for the reality of an intercontinental ballistic missile dropped from twenty years to less than a decade, once the Soviets started World War Three.
It was thought that the only way to stop nuclear tipped missiles from raining down on American cities was to utterly defeat the Soviets. No other long-term solution was believed feasible. As with the Axis powers of the last war, only unconditional surrender was deemed acceptable.
To thoroughly defeat Communism, the factories and workers of the United States once again turned from producing cars to tanks, and from making lipstick to making millions of bullets. The giant that was America, had once again, hit full stride. With the giant re-awakened, there would be hell to pay for those who had started this war.

Please read the End Notes on Dr. B.F. Skinners Project Pigeon. We believe that once you understand Dr. Skinner’s very simple and elegant guidance system, you will comprehend how short-sided the US Military was in rejecting this simple yet effective solution. We believe it was not rejected on merit but on perception. Possibly tens of thousands of Allied soldiers died needlessly as a result of this short sided decision

Epilogue
The date is now 25 May 1947. The Soviets have conquered most of Eurasia except Britain and Iberia. Stalin is at his personal peak of power and the Soviet Empire is at its zenith.
Napoleon and Hitler were defeated by a combination of Russia’s “General Winter” and thousands of miles of flat, featureless terrain. Both found that the distances and weather dwarfed their country’s ability to supply their armies. Both were defeated soon after reaching Moscow.
As a German Panzer commander is quoted as saying “If this keeps going we will win ourselves to death!" The defeat of every invader of the various Slavic empires has been directly attributed to the vast distances of the Russian Steppes.
The exhausted civilians of America and Britain would not stand for a prolonged fight of attrition. The casualties experienced by Soviets and Germany would be unacceptable. Heavy loses over an extended period of time has been the demise of many a would-be conqueror.
NATO has another plan. Simultaneous amphibious landings and invasions have been tried before. NATO’s plan is to make a move and then to wait for the STAVKA to counter that move. The goal of the NATO landings will be to cut off Soviet Armies from their supplies, causing them to use up precious fuel trying to counter attack NATO’s incursions. The plan is so bold, that if it works, millions of Soviet soldiers will be isolated and left to wither on the vine.
The American giant has been re-awakened. American industry is once again becoming the arsenal of democracy.
The series of attacks and counter attacks bring to mind the children’s game. It starts with when one child puts her hand on top of a playmate’s hand. He then puts his hand on top of hers. She raises the stakes, putting her other hand on top of his hand. Next, he puts his other hand on hers. The little girl pulls her hand out from under his and places it on top of the pile. They continue until one or the other child stops.
In the case of nation states the “hands” are the lives of millions of people. It then becomes a question of who runs out of hands first.
