Did President Kennedy remove nuclear missiles from Turkey to resolve a crisis?

The placement of U.S. nuclear missiles in Turkey is thought to have provoked the Cuban Missile Crisis. Missiles in Turkey were close enough to strike Moscow, so Russia placed armaments in Cuba, which was within striking distance of U.S. soil. The Missile Crisis, began on October 14th 1962. Robert Kennedy said, during negotiations with the Russians that the missiles would be removed within a short time after the crisis ended. The Missile Crisis ended on October 28th of 62 and the missiles were quietly taken out of turkey some time after April 24th 1963.


What effect did the D-Day have on World War 2?

It sped things up in Europe; it was really a race between the Soviets (Russians) and the Western Allies, on who could beat whom into Berlin first. The Germans greatly wanted to surrender to the Western Allies, not the Soviets! Had the US/British not reached Berlin when they did, the Soviets (Russians) would have taken over ALL of Berlin, instead of just EAST Berlin.
