Well it is not my job since "we" (Germany) don't have the bomb, and are thus not able to cause or prevent a (the last) nuclear strike.
Thinking of the USA: Probably not, and if someone in the US military would had saved the world that way, he probably would have been court martialed and kicked out immediately for not exactly following orders. I always thought that Dr. Strangelove was a joke, but it is not. I fear the predominant western military has lost its contact to reason and the real world.
Next: militarising the police..
