The abortive Bay of Pigs invasion took place. Some Americans were killed. hundreds of Cubans killed and taken prisoner. The poorly planned invasion was crushed. Then our Government paid a huge ransom in medical supplies to secure the release from imprisonment of some hundreds taken prisoner in that invasion. Even today. thousands of Cuban refugees are being maintained at the expense of our Government while they are no doubt plotting further invasions. Almost daily we read of hijacking incidents. Unfortunately we have no embassy nor staff in Havana but are dependent on the Swiss o make protests to the Cuban Government.
