From the IT:
Meanwhile, a high-level delegation from Cuba has arrived in Ireland for a series of events to mark the 50th anniversary of the Bay of Pigs invasion, which began on April 17th, 1961.
Over next week, the group, led by Bay of Pigs survivor Col Victor Dreke Cruz and veteran Cuban broadcaster Reinaldo Taladrid, will tour Ireland for a series of seminars which will include talks and in some places a screening of the documentary film on the invasion, 66 Hours, the True Story of the Bay of Pigs.The IT also has a story that Batista's wife wrote to Sean T Kelly to ask for permission to move the family to Ireland in March 1959:)
