Ever since the Soviet missiles are found American U2s are making periodic surveillance flights over Cuba.
27 October, 0900 hours
A U2 spy aircraft flew-up from Macoy Airforce space Orlando, Florida, by Major Rudolf Anderson, to another mission over the Cuban territory. At 1000 hours, he guided his U2 over to the Port of Vain, one of the SS4 missile battery station. Over 70000 feet above and away from the Missile Battery, Anderson has found there is something inbound. Before he finish the thought a Soviet SAM has blow the U2. Anderson got killed and the U2 had spin-down. Ever since the Cuban missile crisis, there is a combat fertility. A US pilot has been killed and an aircraft has been shot-down.
Until the 1600 hours, xCom meeting, this news has not reached to him. A day before the airstrikes as a part of the full scale invasion, there is an unacceptable situation. Kennedy sent, Bobby Kennedy to the Soviet Ambassador, with a clear message that 'the Soviet must dismantle and ship the nuclear missile with immediate effect and the US will stop all the quarantine works along with the plan of a Cuban invasion, now and in future. But secretly Kennedy has put an under-arm offer also, that assure immediate took-back all the Jupiter missiles from Turkey. This was classified by both US as well as by the Russians for a long time. Soviet had got 24 hours to respond to this.
The Cuban, the American, The Russian, and hundreds and thousands of people were got panic about the possible outcome of this crisis. Soviet Nuclear commanders got high alert orders from Moscow.
28 October, 0300 hours, Moscow
The Soviets have announcement to make, a personal message from President Khrushchev to President Kennedy, this time Russians use the Radio Moscow, instead of Western Union Telegram. It was like 'the missile units will dismantled and returned to USSR to end-up the crisis'. Kennedy responded with an order to stop all military activities against Cuba, until the U2 photographs are clear this fact.
October 29th, the surveillance aircraft U2 find the dismantled, launch pads are removed and launch vehicles are get collected stationary. US has suspended all military actions against Cuba and put DefCon 3. For the next few months Americans watching a long and pervasive process happening in a reverse order, dismantling all missiles and warheads from Cuba to USSR. Until the last missile, last Soviet submarine leaves that area, they keep DefCon3 and on high alert.
US has never been in DefCon2 after the Cuban Missile Crisis. Although the Cold War was on high degree, thanks to both the presidents, to have a second thought for a second chance to live this world once again.
All the Best
