honoring this second deal? The tomorrow they make another condition Meanwhile the quarantine isn't working and they're completing work on the missiles sites Sir, I think we have to issue pre- invasion orders for our forces Mr. President This morning's photography is in It appears the Soviet have commenced a crash program to ready their missiles The first missiles become operational last night We expect they'll all be operational in 36 hours Then we're out of time We have to go in That may not be as easy as we thought, either We have confirmation the Soviets have also deployed battlefield nuclear weapons to Cuba FROGS, we call them Short- range tactical nukes We don't know whether they've delegated release authority to their local commanders for use on our invasion troops But the good news is as of this moment we know where the FROGS are and we can target them, too But the longer we wait the harder it's going to get We have no choice General, issue orders to our forces to be prepared to execute the air strikes Monday morning and the follow-on invasion according to the schedule thereafter I'll need the official release orders on my desk Sunday night Understood, sir We need to step up our over flights finalize our pilots' target folders in order to carry out the strikes Permission granted Yes, sir Gentlemen if anybody's got any great ideas now's the time Major Anderson there's a phone call for you Thank you Gimme just a second here, guys This is Major Anderson Hello? Anyone there? Major? Yes, sir My name's Kenneth O'Donnell Special Assistant to the President Major, a few days ago the President ordered me to... help him keep control of what's going on out there I've been brow-beating pilots navy guys left and right to make sure you don't get us here in Washington into trouble But you know what? We're pretty damn good ourselves at getting into trouble So instead of riding your ass I'm just gonna tell you what's going on here and let you figure out how best to help us out up here Go ahead, sir Last night, it looked like we were gonna cut a deal to get us all out of this mess Today the Soviets are reneging We're gonna try and salvage the situation but a lot of things are going wrong today It's making everyone nervous If more things go wrong people will become more nervous and it will be very hard to aviod going to war I'm not sure what you're trying to tell me, sir Just my standard line I've been repeating to guys like you all week Don't get shot down Beyond that whatever else you can do to help us I'd appreciate it Sir When you're at 72, 000 feet a million things can go wrong Is your Oxygen mix right? Are your cameras gonna freeze up? Are you leaving a contrail? Those million things they're beyond your control, mostly But... when you realize that there's a kind of peace If you're a good man and if your ground crew are good men that is all you can ask for And with the grace of God that'll get you through Are you a religious man? I am Good The plane is missing, Kenny We are presuming the pilot is dead It's hard to believe with the Soviet centralized command structure that this could have been an accidental launch The question is, does this attack on our plane represent a definitive intentional escalation on the part of the Soviets? Mr. President taken with the events of the past few hours I believe this confirms our worst fears We're now dealing with a hard-line Soviet government perhaps with Kruschev as a puppet head, perhaps not You okay? Yeah I'm fine Mr. President What now? A U-2 on a routine air- sampling mission got lost and penetrated Soviet airspace over Siberia Oh, goddammit The Soviets scrambled MIG's in pursuit thinking it was a bomber It got out okay Somebody forgot to cancel the mission There's always some sonofabitch who doesn't get the word!
