by Coco Peredo, a member of the
Communist Youth branch of the PCB who became a leader of the guerrillas, using money given to the PCB by Cuba for that purpose. The location chosen was, shall we say, unfortunate, and far from the area where Che had expressly directed that the land should be purchased -- he had selected the Alto Beni region. Exactly what was said among Fidel Castro, Manuel Piñeiro and Mario Monje remains murky and it seems probable that the exact truth will never be known. Che and Monje did not personally discuss plans for the guerrilla operation until after Che had arrived at the Ñancahuazú farm. This meeting took place on 31 December 1966 and it immediately became apparent that their expectations were very different and by the time it ended it was clear that the PCB would not be collaborating with Che's group. Monje asked Che's permission to inform those members of the PCB Communist Youth who were members of the guerrilla troop about the fact that the PCB would not be supporting the movement and to give them the option to withdraw from it. Che assented and Monje addressed them, laying out his objections to Che's plans and asking them to leave the
919:, he reiterated all of this to Hilda, but she chose not to accept the fact that he intended for the marriage to end. Shortly after the "26th of July movement" triumphed (on 21 January 1959 to be exact) she took their three-year-old daughter ("Hildita") and flew to Havana, in her mind for the purpose of being reunited with Che and resuming their marriage. He immediately informed her that as far as he was concerned their marriage was over and that he would be initiating divorce proceedings immediately. This was before he had been proclaimed "a Cuban citizen by birth", and I feel quite certain that it had nothing whatsoever to do with the citizenship issue. During the years that he was fighting in the Sierra, Che had been involved with several women, but had "settled down" with Aleida March in the summer of 1958. He told Hilda that he intended to marry Aleida as soon as their divorce became final, and this is what he did. (As to his motives for marrying Aleida, I have no definitive information and prefer not to speculate ... )
3252:“In May 1954, Arbenz turned to Czechoslovakia for military weapons in order to guard against a possible American intervention. Arbenz purchased 2,000 tons of arms which were sent on a Swedish ship Alfhem which evaded several attempts of interception enroute to Guatemala. One CIA official wanted to sink the ship in the Guatemalan port of Puerto Barrios, but that plan was rejected by his superiors. Instead, the CIA approved a plan to dynamite the railroad tracks outside Puerto Barrios, so that the arms shipment would be stalled. But that plan backfired when the rain-soaked detonators failed. CIA operants quickly opened fire on the passing train but failed to stop the shipment of weapons to the Guatemalan military. As it turned out, the weapons were of little use to the Guatemalan military, since they were comprised of cannons which could be used when mounted on railroad cars; anti-tank guns but there were no tanks in the area; and antiquated small arms, most of which were inoperable”
3272:
weapons went by rail suggesting a really heavy cargo. It is my opinion that the 2 ton figure with or without artillery is merely an excuse for defeat. What ever, the air support may well have made the difference. Perhaps the
Guatemalan military unhappy with Arbenz’s killing of Arana was not reliable, and the “Workers Militia” were simple not ready. As to the quality of the weaponry they were from the Skoda works, the highest quality in the Soviet block. Castro once complained that the Mauser rifles shipped to him by Costa Rican President Figueras were of bad quality, while most experts regard Mauser rifles as excellent. It would seem that the trouble was incompetence because the Mausers used 7mm ammunition that is slightly different from 30.06 Springfield round in Cuba and using 30.06 jammed the Mausers. Besides Anderson has made a number of other mistakes in his excellent book. You will have to read mine when it comes out.

wholly without merit and should be reflected in the article. Guevara is portrayed by those who idolize him as the David to
America’s imperialistic goliath, but realistically this is more of a construct than any accurate reflection of history. Outside of a few engagements in Cuba, Guevara had no success anywhere else he tried to export the revolution to. In fact on the few occasions he tangled with US forces directly, he had was defeated. In the Congo, his forces were decimated by the local Congolese led by a 6 man Green Beret A-team, and in Bolivia, well we know that story. Interestingly enough, the purpose of the A-Team in the Congo was not to kill Guevara, but to grind him down and humiliate him, as they had numerous opportunities to kill him. There is a reason that the US Army’s special warfare school makes its students read Giap, but not Guevara.

leaders over the matter and chastised them for not having fired the missiles. When they replied that such an action on their part would have doubtlessly resulted in the death of hundreds of millions of people in the USA, USSR, Eastern and
Western Europe, and the virtual obliteration of Cuba and its inhabitants, he retorted that this would have been "a necessary sacrifice". His reasoning was apparently that if 500 million people in the "oppressor nations" of the North were to die in a nuclear holocaust, this would mean the liberation of the 2,000+ million people (1960 population figures) in the impoverished countries of the South, and the net effect for humanity would therefore be a positive one. In other words, he considered the value of the life of a human being who happened to be residing in a developed country to be

Guatemalan army on their own. The key to a successful coup was getting the army to act on their behalf, and in this regard, control of the air was vital. Pawley, owing to his knowledge of Latin
America and experience in aviation, played a central role in ensuring that the rebels enjoyed air superiority during their move against the president. At a more abstract level, Pawley exemplified the role non-governmental actors played in the formulation and implementation of U.S. foreign policy during the Cold War. The "state-private network," as it has been dubbed, remains a rich vein for scholarly investigation.” This paper discusses air support of Castillo Armas and also mentions 2000 tons of weaponry.

Alfhem. As to
Anderson it is hard for me to be that critical, but perhaps a contribution to a revised edition may be useful. In addition, there are other author's correspond with me on the topic. Still there is much novel material coming to light. Today I saw an item coming out of Cuba stating that the Mexican (Francisco Rodriguez Tamayo) was part of Che Guevara's "suicide squad," he is supposed to be in Miami and must know so much I hope he tells all soon. What is happening now is that many of the old even in Cuba, are rushing to write before they die. But complete freedom to write for those inside Cuba will not occur until the senior leaders pass from power. El Jigue 3-16-06

The Mexican was also close to Universo Sanchez who used him as an executioner and bodyguard. It is said that the Mexican was involved in crime in Miami, and his name appears in various John Kennedy's shooting conspiracy theory site; frankly I think he too was "company" and that all this crime stuff is mere "cover"....

Tracing the fuse, soldiers wound up in a gunfight. One sergeant and one saboteur were killed.”
3348:(above), it occurs to me that we might set up a separate section in the article entitled "Details of the Alfhem incident" where you could put some or all of that? I did find quite a bit of good data about the ship itself, the only problem being that it is all written in Swedish and I don't know Swedish. (But I definitely know more now than I knew this morning.) When you have a chance, please look at the "Specifications" section I just added and tell me if it needs any correction or modification.
491:. It is said that Guevara was perhaps responsible for sending people in after the first explosion to be caught in the second explosion. The Castro government had allowed the unloading of the ship at a dockside instead the regulation requiring unloading on to a lighter in the harbor.
