Explanation:
8 Jun. 1959 North American Aviation along with research pilot Scott Crossfield made the first unpowered glide flight in the joint X-15 hypersonic research program with NASA.
They had conducted with the Air Force, the Navy, and North American. The program completed its 199th and final flight on 24 October 1968 in what many consider to have been the most successful flight research effort in history. 1959 memory marked this event to light.
Meanwhile, defense programs of the USA with Europe was at its peak first year in 1959, The PGM-11 Redstone was the first large American ballistic missile. A short-range ballistic missile (SRBM), it was in active service with the United States Army in West Germany from June 1958 to June 1964 as part of NATO's Cold War defense of Western Europe. It was the first US missile to carry a live nuclear warhead, in the 1958 Pacific Ocean weapons test it was witnessed by Chief Engineer Wernher von Braun. Both personally referenced he spoke of the historic launch and detonation.
The United States same year, first deployed nuclear weapons on Turkish soil in 1959. President John F. Kennedy used them as bargaining chips to end the 13 day Cuban missile crisis in 1962, agreeing to withdraw nuclear-armed Jupiter missiles from Turkey in exchange for the removal of Soviet nuclear weapons in Cuba.
We can see intelligence was acted on in 1953, however such actions in 1962 only met it's fate and deep regret. With reactions that led Cuban government turn to the hands of Russia, this was not why the event was a failure, governments learnt from such modern day invasions considering the fatalities for both soldiers each side.
USA had a national medical hero 8 years earlier in 1959, that the press never let go of especially during updates on Korea where she was promoted in 1958. Â Bradley served in the Korean War as Chief Nurse for the 171st Evacuation Hospital. In November 1950, during the Chinese counter-offensive, she refused to leave until she had loaded the sick and wounded onto a plane in Pyongyang while surrounded by 100,000 advancing Chinese soldiers. She was able to jump aboard the plane just as her ambulance exploded from an enemy shell. In 1951, she was named Chief Nurse for the Eighth Army, where she supervised over 500 Army nurses throughout Korea.
She was promoted to the rank of colonel in 1958 and retired from the Army in 1963
We saw change in USA in 1941 where 350,000 recruited and 1948 the men's army's accepted their first woman in recruit, facts tell us during the 1950's Korean war that no women's army coup only enlisted army nurses, were ever used or sent to Korea, showing a complete contrast indifference to Cuban military. The USA did not allow Women corps to fight in any combat until Vietnam war 1978, even though from 1953 it was aid related to victims of South Korea, women were not considered more skilled even if discipline was proved.
In 1958 back in Cuba, men were saying, “How can we give rifles to women when there are so many men who are unarmed?”
Fidel answered: “Because they’re better soldiers than you are. They’re more disciplined.” Others spoke of the women pursuit in vanguard it's advance. When mid fight men were advised to hold back. Being a display of merit for the whole Cuban rebel population and cherishing of admiration for the rebels plight. However with such worldly news of US nurse Ruby Bradley, the Mariana Grajales Platoon was formed. said of Celia Sanchez, "When you speak of Celia, you've got to speak of Fidel, and vice versa. Celia's ideas touched almost everything in the Sierra. These were two contrasting female figurines of the 1950's and I believe 1950's for USA spoke of each essence in these two women.
An inspiration to many, considering awareness to the uprising in dictatorship Cuba, the caution and loss of life for many soldiers north and south.
Probable change was the inspiring acceptance of female military use in USA even if they weren't deployed 1950's. What we do see is defense change strategy and huge decisions that caused a serious conflict with head to head with Russia, we hope that lessons can be learnt and never forgotten. While circumstantially is what happens as the worlds defense does it's upmost to unite.
