Cold War not over.......it's just cooled off a bit

Russian subs stalk Trident in echo of Cold War 

from the Article found here;

"A specially upgraded Russian Akula class submarine has been caught trying to record the acoustic signature made by the Vanguard submarines that carry Trident nuclear missiles, according to senior Navy officers.
British submariners have also reported that they are experiencing the highest number of "contacts" with Russian submarines since 1987."

The Russians haven't gone away, folks. They're still there, still a threat, and we still need to prepare for them. They still consider us Enemy #1.
