Ice-X '86: Freezing the Cold War
()
About this ebook
Of all the high level, vital and extremely challenging programs of my military/federal career, the ICE-X project tops the list. I was honored to lead this team of dedicated engineers to successfully overcome the design, logistics and tactical impossibilities of the Arctic environment and prove the U.S.s capabilities against a very serious and real world threat.
Actual ICE-X team leader (Alex Trinola in the story).
What a terrific adventure! We had no idea the ramifications of these tests until the top-secret mission was over.
Len Morini, ICE-X team design engineer, 1986.
Only time will tell the full strategic significance of these tests at the top of the worldhow they will influence the course of history.
Secretary of the Navy, John F. Lehman Jr., Arctic Circle, 1986.
This story brought back memories of the exciting times I had aboard the USS Hawkbillthe 666 Devil Boata worthwhile adventure.
Thomas D. Warner, Navy Chief (Ret.)
