Above: Atomic Frontier Days poster. Cold War symbols pervade the state of Washington. The Space Needle and Pacific Science Center attest to the future-minded, high-tech, aerospace-oriented thinking around Puget Sound. During the late 1950s and early 1960s, Seattle learned to call itself "jet city," among other "aerospacey" things, as Boeing's increasing production defined the local economy. During the annual Seafair festival (which commemorated not space but Seattle's maritime heritage), the city hosted the Navy's squadron of Blue Angel performing jets as well as a variety of naval vessels. Richland High Bombers , after 1970 or so, adopted an atomic-blast mushroom cloud as the school logo. Townspeople defended the much-criticized symbol as an accurate icon for their history. Much more than Seattle, Richland and Hanford, products of the atom, were creatures of World War Two and the Cold War. [On Richland's past see John M. Findlay, "Atomic Frontier Days: Richland, Washington, and the Modern American West," Journal of the West 34 (July 1995): 32-41.]

Cold War: Postwar Estrangement The Western democracies and the Soviet Union discussed the progress of World War II and the nature of the postwar settlement at conferences in Tehran (1943), Yalta (February 1945), and Potsdam (July-August 1945). After the war, disputes between the Soviet Union and the Western democracies, particularly over the Soviet takeover of East European states, led Winston Churchill to warn in 1946 that an "iron curtain" was descending through the middle of Europe. For his part, Joseph Stalin deepened the estrangement between the United States and the Soviet Union when he asserted in 1946 that World War II was an unavoidable and inevitable consequence of "capitalist imperialism" and implied that such a war might reoccur. The Cold War was a period of East-West competition, tension, and conflict short of full-scale war, characterized by mutual perceptions of hostile intention between military-political alliances or blocs. There were real wars, sometimes called "proxy wars" because they were fought by Soviet allies rather than the USSR itself along with competition for influence in the Third World, and a major superpower arms race. After Stalin's death, East-West relations went through phases of alternating relaxation and confrontation, including a cooperative phase during the 1960s and another, termed dtente, during the 1970s. A final phase during the late 1980s and early 1990s was hailed by President Mikhail Gorbachev, and especially by the president of the new post-Communist Russian republic, Boris Yeltsin, as well as by President George Bush, as beginning a partnership between the two states that could address many global problems.

This site is best viewed with a 4.0 browser and requires javascript The Atomic Age: From fission to fallout For many people now living, the modern world began on August 6, 1945. The U.S. atomic bombings of the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and, three days later, Nagasaki, brought an end to World War II. But the arrival of the Atomic Age, and the brutal evidence of just how effective this new weapon was, tainted the ensuing peace. Edward R. Murrow, a famed U.S. radio journalist of the time, commented: "Seldom if ever has a war ended leaving the victors with such a sense of uncertainty and fear, with such a realization that the future is obscure and that survival is not assured." A brief bomb history Scientists knew about the atom's basic structure as early as the late 1800s. But only six years elapsed between the discovery of fission in 1939 and the destruction of Hiroshima by an atomic bomb. By the 1930s, physicists were aware of the potential military uses of nuclear energy. In 1939, German-born scientist Albert Einstein sent a letter to U.S. President Franklin Roosevelt alerting him to the possible threat. Soon after the U.S. entered World War II, the United States government secretly established the Manhattan Project to develop an atomic bomb.

I was stationed in Germany 1985-1986 during the worst nuclear disaster in history: The meltdown of the Chernobyl power plant. All of Europe was concerned with the nuclear fall out from the accident. While back in Germany, U.S. Forces were on alert because of the August 8th, 1985 bombing of Rhein-Main's Air Force Base in Frankfurt and later the April 5, 1986 bombing of a discotech in Berlin. I remember seeing the windows blown out on several large buildings near the BX. I was sent to Rhein-Main on guard duty while security barriers were installed. The Lance crewmen were assigned to two different crews. The first crew picked up the main missile assemblage and warhead (both stored in containers) and loaded them up on 5-ton trucks. Later they would open the containers and 'mate' the warhead to the missile. The assembled missile would be placed onto a tank-like vehicle called a loader-transporter The second crew would load the missile onto a similar tracked-vehicle capable of launching the missile. The tracked-vehicle would drive to a marked location where the missile would be layed with survey equipment and gunner's sight quadrant attached to the missile. If it was a nuclear round, launching codes would be entered into the warhead. The missile would then be launched which was a spectacular site. I saw the Lance fired at the NATO base in Crete, Greece and in White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico. I've never seen anything move so fast. It takes flight at a speed of Mach 3. During battle the Lance missile would be used against the Soviet's front line.
