Gotcha, I was going with the PoD from the Original Movie, which I think was the Wheat Harvest which caused the Soviets to take the Great Plains. Check out my movie review above, we get pretty deep into some of that.

With Mexico and Nicaragua turning red, the NATO alliance apparently splintering, I'd like to think the POD dates back to the 1970s.
guys are you going to create the emblem of ALA (American Liberation Army) is a military/security force raised in the occupied states. It's membership ranges from people who are forcibly conscripted, reluctantly join for free food, criminals looking for a reduced sentence and a lot of power, and of course, true-believers a bunch of American Turncoats working for the Soviets akin to Vichy Milice.
I've always taken it that the PoD was after 1984, but that's a good point that a bad harvest didn't cause the Communists to take over in Central America. Mike over at ww31987 did a bit on it. He puts the PoD at 1980, and it seems pretty tight.

Very Cool! It's always interesting to see different perspectives when you have your PoDs around the same time. I have to admit, I didn't really hone in on the PoD in my series, so hard core AH fans will shred me in the reviews.In other fanfictions, the POD is even in 1976.

The Soviet Domination story that James is telling covers so much familiar territory. Iran and Central America blowing up like that. It's very cool to read someone else's thoughts on how that might unfold.

Okay, I'm dense, but I've finally figured out what's going on here lmao.

Algerian Special Forces deployed to Costa Rica to oversee the return of American and Canadian POWs in Cuba as a result of mediation by Malaysia, India, and Algeria, March 4, 1990. Costa Rica was chosen as the destination by the U.S. and Cuba due to its neutrality during WWIII.
i can imagine if Israel got involved like they'll sent elite forces.

I will start posting pictures in threads images from alternate world, could you elaborate this rule, thanks, I'm not familiar with this rule🙏
A view from Lawrence, Kansas of a Soviet nuclear warhead initiating over a SAC missile Launch Control Centre on Day 1 of the Third World War.
A Phantom FG.1 of 43 (Fighter) Squadron operating from RAF Stornoway. Circa 1986. 43 (F) Squadron normally operated from RAF Leuchars and would re-equip with the Tornado F.3 in late 1987.
Two F-4J (UK) of Tiger Flight, RAF, returning from a MIGCAP mission to Sheppard AFB in February 1988 . Note they are still wearing the markings of 74 (Tiger) Squadron. Tiger Flight was attached to the 335th Tactical Fighter Squadron for a period in early 1988. Once the deployment was over, the surviving F-4J (UK) were returned to the US Navy. However, the Flight would pave the way for the deployment of two RAF manned F-4E(UK) squadrons to the Southern Theatre later in the year.
It's a rule to prevent spamming threads with photos, hence only three per day.
So after posting three pictures, I have to wait until next day

Elements of Task Force MARAVICH advance near the town of Arnette, TX , May 1988. Ad hoc task forces of USMC and Army paratroopers were common in the early phases of GULF HAMMER, as Marines pushing up from the Gulf beachheads made contact with the 101st and 82nd Airborne LZs. Operating essentially as light mechanized cavalry, these troops were instrumental in seizing almost of all 6th Shock Army's supply routes into Houston, cutting off what had been up to that point one of the most effective COMBLOC formations.
The first stage of the Saturn V rocket SA-514 seen on a barge in Gulfport, MS, June 1986. The rapid evacuation of almost all of the key components and personnel from the Johnson Space Center in Houston was one of the few bright spots in the early months of the war.
