New Documentary: Cold War Secrets of Northern Minnesota
At the height of the Cold War, northern Minnesota was on the front lines of this global conflict. To reach America’s heartland, the Soviet Union had to fly over the North Pole and through our airspace.
In “Cold War Secrets of Northern Minnesota,” you’ll meet Cold War heroes like Ray Klosowski, Jim Chapman, and Ronald Hein. You’ll visit military sites in Duluth, French River, and Finland. And you’ll learn how the constant threat of nuclear annihilation affected everyone in northern Minnesota, America, and the world.
