Interview with Capt. Esteban Echevarria and Alberto Alberty, navigator. During this 2007 interview they recount their efforts against the communist dictatorship of Fidel Castro, recruitment by the CIA, training in Guatemala, attempting to drop weapons in Escambray and flying during the Bay of Bigs invasion. Unfortunately, during this 2007 interview I had limited time to ask questions. Thank you to Enrique Encinosa for setting up the interview. Encinosa is the author of several books including “Unvanquished: Cuba’s Resistance to Fidel Castro.” #cuba #escambray #bayofpigs
