Biography
In the 1960s, shocked by the CIA's methods of putting down socialism in Latin America, Fidel Castro met a certain Che Guevara in a bar in a Mexican City, and the two decided they should grow some awesome beards and overthrow the Cuban government, which is exactly what they did. So the US immediately began training up Cuban exiles to invade Cuba and overthrow Castro. However, as the day of Operation came closer, the American wanted to conceal any US involvement in the plan, and they massively scaled back their air support. As a result, the Bay of Pigs invasion was a humiliating defeat for America. But Castro felt there was still an impending American threat to his regime, so he spoke to Khrushchev and suggested him to set their missiles up in Cuba. The US freaked out as they realized what was going on. The US navy announced they would stop and search any Soviet ships heading to Cuba, and would sink any that did not comply. Both US and Soviet Union put their military into full combat readiness, and the US began to drawing up plans for an attack on Cuba. Castro was bloody livid when he heard Kennedy and Khrushchev finally came to an agreement for removing their missiles from Turkey and Cuba respectively. (Currently Unfinished)
