The History Guy remembers the 3 a.m. call of the 1979 NORAD alert at Cheyenne Mountain, Colorado, during the Cold War. It is history that deserves to be remembered.

The History Guy uses images that are in the Public Domain. As photographs of actual events are often not available, I will sometimes use photographs of similar events or objects for illustration.
