An invasion

Actual Date: May 6, 2011

Historical date: April 5th, 1961

It has just come to my attention that the CIA has been recruiting anti- Castro exiles from Cuba in the Miami area. The CIA has, for about a year, taken these ant- Castro exiles and assessing and training them in various training facilities in Southern Florida, one of them being  Homestead AFB. They have also been training these exiles to be good gorilla fighters .Infantry training has been carried out on a CIA base code named JMTrax. These exiles named themselves the Brigade 2506 or Brigada Asulto 2506. We have also given these anti- Castro exiles some weapons and other materials they would need for an invasion of Cuba, such as planes. I think that this tactic of training Cubans to take out Castro has many upsides and flaws. One of the major upsides is that the United States Government is not directly invading Cuba with troops or with airstrikes. We are just training and supplying military for the assault on Cuba. We could deny involvement completely if we really wanted to. One of the major draw backs is the potential for Soviet reaction. This could call for the Soviets to retaliate with war or strikes that would inevitably lead to war.
