For those of you familiar with the Berlin crisis of 1961 which climaxed with a tank stand off between Soviet and American tank forces on the border of East and West Berlin, how do you think that it would have unfolded at a global level had the tank standoff gone hot? Obviously, had it gone hot Berlin would have been overwhelmed by Soviet forces as it is well within the heart of East Germany, but what about at a more global level? If this had led to a direct war between the Soviet and American forces how do you think that it would have played out?
