World Changing Event: October 14, 1962– Cuban Missile Crisis begins: A U-2 flight over Cuba takes photos of Soviet nuclear weapons being installed.

October 24, 1962 – First confrontation between US Navy and Soviet cargo vessel. The vessel changes course. October 28, 1962 Soviet Union leader Nikita Khrushchev announces that he has ordered the removal of Soviet missile bases in Cuba.
