Synopsis

In chilling detail, this book reveals the top-secret procedures for starting World War III - the secret codes, the elaborate fail-safe mechanisms, and the highly classified battle tactics for nuclear combat. You'll learn of the extraordinary security measures that protect the deadliest weapons in the world - even from the submariners who handle them. You should also come to know intimately the men of the Nebraska, who are still willing to end life as we know it on this planet if the President orders them to do so.
