The Cold War Years

The Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union and their allies lasted from the late 1940s through the late 1980s. But the armed forces of the two superpowers met only through proxies. The primary front-line soldiers in the Cold War were diplomats, political leaders, and intelligence officers. David M. Bush was a career military analyst for the Central Intelligence Agency during the last decade and a half of the Cold War. This is a first-person narrative of his experiences providing intelligence support to US Government decision-makers for several crises involving the USSR and its Caribbean Basin allies Cuba, Grenada, and Nicaragua.
