Gitmo - The True Story
Located only 400 miles from Miami is the US Naval Base Guantanamo Bay - also known to many as Gitmo. It is the oldest US base overseas, and the only US Naval Base in a Communist country. On this DVD, hear true stories from our current military soldiers, and from Cubans employed on the base during 1960s.
The United States leased the 45 square miles of land and water in 1903 from our thentrading partner Cuba. Both countries agreed to payment of ,000 in gold per year (,085 by today’s standards) with a requirement of mutual consent by both parties to terminate the lease.
In 1961 President Dwight Eisenhower cut all diplomatic relationships with Cuba. Over 17 miles of fence were built, and both the US Marines and Cuba’s Frontier Brigade currently patrol opposite sides of the base’s fence line 24 hours a day.
