Is it true that the Cuban Missile Crisis was a thirteen-day nuclear standoff between the United States and the Soviet Union in October 1962?

Yes. Two reference works state directly that the Cuban Missile Crisis was a 13-day confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union lasting from 16 to 28 October 1962. Several other sources confirm the 1962 crisis and US-Soviet nuclear tension but do not address its thirteen-day duration.
