Yalta, Tehran, these conferences would not just decide the fate of ww2, but even the world after. But, more importantly, what was the catering like? What did the delegates eat?

At all of these big political meetings, I always wonder what people did for food. As someone with food allergies, that's always a top priority, especially in countries that use a lot of my allergies. Did everyone have Iranian cuisine? Did people chow down on borscht in Yalta?

What was FDRs security detail when he went to the Tehran Conference?

Today, Air Force One has a flight of fighter escorts and the president travels with an army of armed agents. Did FDR travel with a security escort when he went to Tehran? Considering WW2 was in full swing, was his flight across North Africa in the Middle East under escort? If so, what was the organization/equipment of the security detail?

[Diplomacy] Tehran Conference

Open Diplomacy

In the wake of the declaration of jihad against Israel, Supreme Leader Khamenei has called for a conference among all muslim countries to take place in Tehran to discuss the future of Islamic relations with Israel. Additionally, we would also like to discuss fallout cleanup efforts in Iran and Afghanistan as a result of the Israeli nuclear attack. We expect that countries with a Shia-majority population will be very anti-Israel seeing the religious damage that took place as a result of the attack. Azerbaijan, Iraq, Bahrain, and Syria should be our strongest allies in this part of the conference. However, we are unsure of the Sunni-majority response, as Saudi Arabia is yet to make a statement on the attack. We do expect that they may stand in solidarity in telling Israel that this is not ok.

What if Stalin, Churchill, and Roosevelt were all killed in the Tehran Conference 1943?

The German plot operation long jump to assassinate the big three is not found out by allied intelligence, and SS commando Otto Skorzeny leads a team to Tehran to kill the entire allied leadership. The night before the meeting they plant a homing beacon across the street from the soviet embassy where the meeting is to take place. In a remote part of Persia a German team is able to flatten out a field for a runway and assemble a cargo plane loaded with more than a ton of explosives. The plane hits the embassy just as the big three were assembling for a photo.

Among those killed is General H.H. Arnold, Chief of the U.S. Army Air Force; General Alan Brooke, Chief of the Imperial General Staff; Admiral Cunningham, First Sea Lord; Admiral William Leahy, Chief of staff to President Roosevelt, Anthony Eden, and Molotov.

With the loss of the pivotal allied leadership what is effect on the war? With Stalin dead, who in charge of the USSR, is there a power struggle between the Party leaders and the army for control of the state? Does the new British PM have the same resolve to see the end of the war as Churchill did when there were those during the battle of Britain wanted terms for armistice?

FDR dies on the Iowa on his way to the Tehran conference

If you don’t know FDR was aboard the USS Iowa on his way to the Tehran conference. During this trip he asked to see a torpedo demonstration. The USS porter obliged and fired a dummy torpedo.

It took a second but they realized it was a live torpedo heading for the pride of the Us navy and the president. The porter attempted to tell them via Morse code (light signals) as the Tehran conference was secret. Eventually they gave up and radioed that the Iowa was about to be hit.

In our timeline the captain managed to steer away in time and no one was hurt. But what if the porter kept trying to give light signals and the Iowa sinks, killing the president?

How much did Winston Churchill know about the Manhattan Project at the time of the Tehran Conference?

As the title says: what, if anything, did Churchill know about the Manhattan Project at that point in WWII? I know that there were British people involved in the project, but I don't know what the upper echelons of British government did or didn't know about the project at that point.
I'm asking because we discussed in class today Churchill's frustration with FDR's practically giving away the farm to Stalin during the Tehran Conference, and I wondered how much his knowledge (or lack thereof) of the secret work of the Manhattan Project may have influenced his opinion. My professor wasn't sure what, if anything, the British government knew of the U.S.'s atomic development at the time, so I thought I'd ask here.
