oct 16, 1962 - Ex-Comm has its first meeting

Description:

Ex-Comm, a group of American political leaders, meets for the first time to discuss the Soviet missiles. Ex-Comm would meet several times throughout the crisis and the members rarely agreed on what to do.

Discussions were quite pointless because no members would actually agree on what to do which did not help them in any way. No important or critical decisions were made.
