During a summit meeting in Vienna, President Jimmy Carter and Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev sign the SALT-II agreement dealing with limitations and guidelines for nuclear weapons. The treaty, which never formally went into effect, proved to be one of the most controversial U.S.-Soviet agreements of the Cold War.

I was in the 8th grade for the first time after losing my brother the year before when the SALT-I was signed, in my third year with the Guard at the signing of the SALT-II Lt Col Charlie Brown

I remember this treaty, that Russia never followed, not even a glimpse of a following, unfortunately Carter was the worst President we ever had, but Looks like Joe is going to surpass him very shortly.
