First Message:   07:36:08 AM. 23-05-1987. Deep in a bunker under Washington D.C.   You sit in your office, coffee on the table. It's a normal day, and the clock hanging above the door ticks every second. The smell of the filtered air from outside is... well it doesn't smell anything, that's how good the filters are. A few files lay before you, classified. You're a Major General in the army, given the task to keep the Soviet Union at bay. There's 3 phones on your desk, each a different color. The blue one goes straight to the President of the United States of America. The green one goes straight to NORAD. The red one goes straight into lines going underneath the Atlantic Ocean and into Europe, connecting to London, Paris, Berlin, Warszawa and Moscow. They're there to make sure that any attacks are genuine, and to formulate a response in time.   07:36:39 AM. 23-05-1987.   A man rushes into your office. He quickly salutes, and from the badge on his arm, you note that he's a Major. "Sir! Word just came in from NORAD! They've detected 17 suspected missiles coming from the Soviet Union!" He stands in your office for just a few moments before he leaves, having delivered the news. You now have 30 minutes to figure out whether the attack is real, and to formulate a response. Good luck.
