Cuban Missile Crisis, October 1962

I was a 17 year old in USCG boot camp during the Cuban Missile Crisis and all I remember is that we were told that it was a close call. Now more than 40 years later and a lot of reading about it, it was indeed the closest (I think) we have been to an all out nucleur war. Does anyone have any experiences during this time.
