I've tried to smooth out some of the loaded terms in this article -- calling the airport an "airfield," for example.
Also, while Cubans were involved in constructing the airport, and they did have weapons, I have seen no evidence that there were regular units of the Cuban military defending the airport (or anywhere on the island). I have glossed this over by using 'cuban forces' in place of 'cuban military forces.'
Also I think the Coard/Austin crowd were not just "pro-" Communists, I think they were doctrinaire Communists. But I will leave that edit to someone more familiar with their politics. Roregan (talk) 18:54, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
