Just finished this TL, and wow, what an amazing read! The author did a great job combining the personal stories with the wider scope/academic bits. I especially liked the streams of consciousness, the writing style here is really interesting. The part where the Pilot is forced to bomb Munich was intense as hell; and I’m glad the Constable got a happy ending even if it was a bit cheesy.
Surprised the thread is still “active” nearly a decade after it began.
After reading Protect & Survive and its spin-offs, I can say at least the P&S universe is more hopeful than the 1983: Doomsday universe over the wiki. The fact the United States does not collapse and WWIII formally ends earlier gives this TL a hopeful and optimistic outlook even if the neutrals got bombed.
