April 17th marks the 43rd anniversary of the Bay of Pigs invasion. I hope to have some special blogging that day but am curious as to what some of you remember or know about the event.
I know the Cuban side of the story, but have rarely heard of how Americans felt about it. Please give me your feedback.

My understanding was that we told ’em we’d back them up and decided at the last minute not to. Kind of like what Bush 1 did at the end of the Gulf War with the Shias..
