	Cuban history - The Landing of the Granma
		The landing of the Granma, in December 1956, was planned to re-enact the route that José Martí had followed to begin Cuba's War of Independence in 1895.
		Leaking and running days behind schedule, the Granma was spotted by a helicopter, and the rebels were forced to beach the ship at a spot called Playa de los Colorados, near the village of "Las Coloradas," about fifteen miles south of the designated spot.
		The new landing area was more of a swamp than a beach, and the rebels were unable to unload most of their weapons due to the muddy waters, the thick undergrowth plant life and small crabs.

	Swans Commentary: Granma And Granpa, by Michael W. Stowell - mws041
		For more than 43 years, Fidel Alejandro Castro Ruz has led the Cuban people in their struggle against the oppressive human avidity embodied in what we now call "Empire." Unlike most of his Marxist counterparts, Fidel is unwilling to resign himself to armchair conjecture and postulation.
		On December 5, the rebels were surprised by Batista's troops while resting on the edge of a cane field at Alegría de Pío, not far from the Sierra Maestra.
		He was scared for the Cuban people, for his compañeros, and for himself, yet he knew in his heart that he could not fail.
