1959: The Cold War and Radio Nord ....

The Polaris submarine base at Holy Loch in Scotland dispatched one of its nuclear-armed submarines to stand guard over the natural land-sea 'choke-hold' for ships exiting the Baltic Sea on their way to the North Sea. Standing guard to shoot down USSR jets on the other side of this choke-hold was a USA Nike-Hercules battery of nuclear armed missiles. Off neutral Sweden was a radio ship supposedly there to play pop music, but according to Bill Weaver who had charge of this vessel for the trio of Gordon McLendon, Robert F. Thompson and Clint Murchison Jr., it was really a monitoring ship with underwater sonar built into its hull in order to report on USSR incursions into Swedish waters by the Soviet nuclear fleet of vessels that was serviced at their ports in the Baltic Sea. Contrary to misinformation in the published book called 'Triple Double Cross' that was published after Weaver's death, his own manuscripts which we now have, tie-in to the development of sonar after WWII for both oil and natural gas underwater exploration, and the monitoring of submarines at strategic locations during the Cold War years.
