Question: How long was the confrontation the USS Barataria saw as part of the Cold War?

full_context: Document 1: USS Barataria (AVP-33): The second USS "Barataria" (AVP-33) was a United States Navy "Barnegat"-class seaplane tender in commission from 1944 to 1946. She saw service in the later stages of World War II and was decommissioned postwar. She then was transferred to the United States Coast Guard and was in commission as the Coast Guard cutter USCGC "Barataria" (WAVP-381), later WHEC-381 from 1949 to 1969, serving in the Cuban Missile Crisis and the Vietnam War during her lengthy Coast Guard career.
Document 2: Cuban Missile Crisis: The Cuban Missile Crisis, also known as the October Crisis (Spanish: "Crisis de Octubre" ), the Caribbean Crisis (Russian: Карибский кризис , "Karibskij krizis"), or the Missile Scare, was a 13-day (October 16–28, 1962) confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union concerning American ballistic missile deployment in Italy and Turkey with consequent Soviet ballistic missile deployment in Cuba. The confrontation is often considered the closest the Cold War came to escalating into a full-scale nuclear war.
Document 3: USS Intrepid (CV-11): USS "Intrepid" (CV/CVA/CVS-11), also known as The Fighting "I", is one of 24 "Essex"-class aircraft carrier s built during World War II for the United States Navy. She is the fourth US Navy ship to bear the name. Commissioned in August 1943, "Intrepid" participated in several campaigns in the Pacific Theater of Operations, most notably the Battle of Leyte Gulf. Decommissioned shortly after the end of the war, she was modernized and recommissioned in the early 1950s as an attack carrier (CVA), and then eventually became an antisubmarine carrier (CVS). In her second career, she served mainly in the Atlantic, but also participated in the Vietnam War. Her notable achievements include being the recovery ship for a Mercury and a Gemini space mission. Because of her prominent role in battle, she was nicknamed "the Fighting I", while her frequent bad luck and time spent in dry dock for repairs—she was torpedoed once and hit by four separate Japanese kamikaze aircraft—earned her the nicknames "Decrepit" and "the Dry I". Decommissioned in 1974, in 1982 "Intrepid" became the foundation of the "Intrepid" Sea, Air & Space Museum in New York City.
Document 4: USCGC Catenary (WYTL-65606): USCGC "Catenary" (WYTL-65606) was a cutter in the United States Coast Guard (USCG). Constructed by the Gibbs Gas Engine Company and commissioned in early 1962, the vessel served as part of the USCG for over 30 years before being decommissioned in mid-1995 and sold to the United States Merchant Marine Academy. During her service "Catenary" was based primarily on the east coast of the United States where she was utilized mainly in a law enforcement role.
Document 5: Crazy Ivan: Crazy Ivan is a cold war term used in the US to describe two different concepts. The most common usage was the name given to a maneuver used by Soviet submarines to clear their baffles to see if they were being followed. The second use was a catch-all term for the possibility of a rogue Soviet leader committing to military action, typically in reference to a limited launch of ICBMs against the US. The term Red October was sometimes used to describe the second concept, a reference to the 1984 Tom Clancy novel "The Hunt for Red October" in which a rogue Soviet submarine commander appears to threaten to launch a nuclear strike on the US. The novel uses the first version of the term as a plot point.
Document 6: Cold War II: Cold War II (also called the New Cold War, Second Cold War and Cold War 2.0) refers to a renewed state of political and military tension between opposing geopolitical power-blocs, with one bloc typically reported as being led by Russia and/or China, and the other led by the United States or NATO. This is akin to the original Cold War that saw a global confrontation between the Western Bloc led by the United States and the Eastern Bloc led by the Soviet Union, Russia's predecessor state. American political scientist Robert Legvold posits that the "new Cold War began the moment we went over the cliff, and that happened with the Ukraine crisis." Others, such as Andrew C. Kuchins in 2016, believe that the term is "unsuited to the present conflict," but the situation is arguably more dangerous than during the original Cold War. One of the primary features of the "New Cold War", as first defined by Philip N. Howard, is that conflict is experienced primarily over and through broadcast media, social media, and information infrastructure.
Document 7: Falling Leaves (radar network): Falling Leaves was the improvised ballistic missile early warning system during the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis that networked 3 existing CONUS radars—2 Space Detection and Tracking System (SPADATS) radars and an Aircraft Control and Warning general surveillance radar which was modified by Sperry Corporation to 1500 mi range, allowing detection in space near Cuba. The "Cuban Missile Early Warning System (CMEWS)" radars were "realigned" to monitor for nuclear missile launches from the new Soviet launch sites after Soviet R-12 Dvina IRBMs arrived on September 8, intelligence sources in Cuba had reported lengthy missiles transported through towns, and three R-12 sites were photographed by Lockheed U-2s by October 19.
Document 8: USS General J. C. Breckinridge (AP-176): USS "General J. C. Breckinridge" (AP-176) was a troopship that served with the United States Navy in World War II, the Korean War and the Vietnam War. In October 1949 she was redesignated T-AP-176 but retained her Navy crew. Her namesake was Confederate Major General John C. Breckinridge who served as Vice President of the United States from 1857 to 1861.
Document 9: Twilight Struggle: Twilight Struggle: The Cold War, 1945–1989 is a card-driven strategy game for two players, with its theme taken from the Cold War. One player plays the United States (US), and the other plays the Soviet Union (USSR). The game takes its title from John F. Kennedy's inaugural address:
Document 10: The Missiles of October: The Missiles of October is a 1974 docudrama made-for-television play about the Cuban Missile Crisis. The title evokes the book "The Guns of August" by Barbara Tuchman about the missteps amongst the great powers and the failed chances to give an opponent a graceful way out, which led to the First World War. The teleplay introduced William Devane as John F. Kennedy and cast Martin Sheen as United States Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy. The script is based on Robert Kennedy's book "Thirteen Days: A Memoir of the Cuban Missile Crisis".
Document 11: USNS Mission Santa Barbara (T-AO-131): SS "Mission Santa Barbara" was a Type T2-SE-A2 tanker built for the United States Maritime Commission during World War II. After the war she was acquired by the United States Navy as USS "Mission Santa Barbara" (AO-131). Later the tanker transferred to the Military Sea Transportation Service as USNS "Mission Santa Barbara" (T-AO-131). She was a member of the "Mission Buenaventura"-class oiler and was named for Mission Santa Barbara in Santa Barbara, California.
Document 12: VAQ-33: VAQ-33, nicknamed the "Firebirds", was a Tactical Electronic Warfare Squadron of the U.S. Navy, serving for 44 years (1949-1993) under various designations and with a constantly-evolving group of aircraft. It was designated VAQ-33 in 1968, at which time it operated the piston-powered EA-1F "Skyraider", or "Spad". The squadron had the distinctions of being the last Navy unit to operate the "Skyraider", and of making its last carrier deployment, in 1969. The retirement of the "Spad" marked the beginning of the squadron's decades-long role as a pioneering electronic aggressor squadron. That role ended with electronic aggressor mission's being transferred to the Navy Reserve and the squadron's disestablishment at NAS Key West on 1 October 1993.
Document 13: Banner-class environmental research ship: The "Banner" class was a class of three environmental research ships converted from Camano class cargo ships by the United States Navy during the 1960s. The class comprised three ships: "Banner" , "Pueblo" , and "Palm Beach" . The ships were originally United States Army vessels which had been built in 1944. Although officially classified as environmental research ships, the vessels were actually used as Signals intelligence gathering vessels, as part of the AGER program.
Document 14: USS Caliente (AO-53): The USS "Caliente" (AO-53) was a "Cimarron"-class fleet oiler built during World War II for the U.S. Navy. During her career in the Pacific Ocean, "Caliente" participated in World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War. She was highly decorated for fulfilling her dangerous mission of carrying fuel into battle areas. She received 10 battle stars for World War II, 4 for the Korean War and 8 campaign stars for the Vietnam War.
Document 15: Nuclear arms race: The nuclear arms race was a competition for supremacy in nuclear warfare between the United States, the Soviet Union, and their respective allies during the Cold War. During this period, in addition to the American and Soviet nuclear stockpiles, other countries developed nuclear weapons, though none engaged in warhead production on nearly the same scale as the two superpowers.
