Cool. Thanks.

Very interesting. I didn't realize the US had tested a nuclear device that soon after the end of the war.

The information might be skewed but it indicates the US began sabre rattling before the USSR did or it could mean the USSR wanted no part of a conflict at this time (because we were detonating nukes for the fun of it..
