I'll be honest: i thought the translation note would be summary of what she meant by the collapse of the Soviet Union, seeing as we have a lot of historians here.
Someplace warm? Ido's going to exploit kotatsu plot again,isn't he?

Iowa is basically in the "Please, just let me shoot her. For the Greater Good, let me shoot her" state of mind.
If nothing less, it will vent all those Cold War fustrations of not being able to shoot the Ruskies, but having to settle on their proxies (for USS Iowa, that was North Koreans.
