‘IT’S A NIGHTMARE BUT NO DREAM.’
‘…eight hundred cold weather-troops, battalion strength. About a dozen snowmobiles protecting the flanks. Four armoured vehicles, tracked. Heavy machine-guns, antipersonnel rocket launchers, mortars…’
The place: Alaska, the Dewline early warning radar system.
The weather: full blizzard, a whiteout, planes grounded, ground movement near impossible.
THE TROOPS: RUSSIAN ON AMERICAN SOIL.
The Superpower game of call-my-bluff, poker faces and flexed muscles was turning into a real life death scene.
AND THE TIME: ANY MOMENT NOW.
A speculative story written in the height of the Cold War, at a time when people still believed war was an acceptable way to resolve international differences.
