US engineers disaster with failed Bay of Pigs Invasion
  • In 1961, the U.S. initiated the Bay of Pigs Invasion to overthrow Fidel Castro's government in Cuba.
  • Brigade 2506, composed of Cuban exiles, was inadequately prepared and faced strong resistance from Castro's forces.
  • The failed invasion solidified Cuba's alliance with the USSR and served as a significant lesson in U.S. foreign policy.
