nov 1, 1952 - US develops H-bomb
Description:
The first hydrogen bomb tested by the United States vaporized the islet of Elugelab in the Marshall Islands in the North Pacific.
The Cold War concept that this event matches is deterrence. This is because this use of an atomic bomb warned any other countries not to attack the US, as they wouldn't hesitate to nuke them.
