Descrição: Four years had not yet passed since the end of World War II before the region witnessed two military alliances, each confronting the other across the border between East and West Germany. [...]the political framework of the Cold War, growing straight out of World War II, had become firmly established. Later, when the USSR also developed nuclear arms in 1949, it proceeded to incorporate them into its normal order of battle. [...]the Soviets believed, or made out to believe, that there was nothing unusual about nuclear weapons. The field in which progress has been the most rapid since 1945 has been technology. [...]it is all the more surprising to find that as the Cold War ended, the principal weapons and weapon systems were still almost unchanged from those of World War II. First they concentrated their forces, which, as already noted, were organized very much along World War II lines and built around weapon systems named for World War II heroes.
