Thanks for reminding us TSgt Joe C. that in 1984 Konstantin Chernenko takes over as the general secretary of the Soviet Communist Party following the death of Yuri Andropov.
I was stationed in Germany at that time as an infantryman during the Cold War. As I remember it, tensions ran high at the death of Andropov due to western uncertainty about Soviet intentions.
