I was watching the history channel recently and
learned for the first time that there are Cuban
nationals working on the base, even at the time of
the Cuban Missile Crisis. And they kept coming to
work throughout the crisis. IDs were checked more
carefully, but otherwise it was business as usual.
Didya know that?
