Book IV Print 37: Guerrillas training for invasions of other countries; Louis Dejoie with Jerry HannifinYale University. Department of Manuscripts and Archives1959engspaAccording to St. George's description notes on this sheet, the top and bottom frames depict a group of guerrillas trained and financed by Fidel Castro, with Ernest "Che" Guevara overseeing operations. The guerrillas' purpose was eventually to topple the remaining dictatorships in the circum-Caribbean area, including the Somozas in Nicaragua, Haiti, and the Dominican Republic. Regarding frames 8-10 and 3-7, St. George writes: "Invasion group made up of Caribbean refugees and Cubans being trained in secret camp near Havana. Some of these men were part of the recent invasion of Panama [which occurred while Fidel Castro was visiting the United States in April of 1959; Fidel later denied responsibility]. Others participated in the abortive Nicaraguan invasion [of May 1959]. They are being trained by a Cuban Army Sergeant (front row middle in uniform)." Further documentation of the abortive revolutionary effort in late May 1959 in Nicaragua can be found in Contact Book X, Prints 1-29. All other frames in this print (19-30) depict a conversation between Louis Dejoie, a former Haitian senator (see most clearly on the far-right of frame 22, wearing a bowtie), talking to Jerry Hannifin, a Time-Life correspondent for Latin America. According to St. George, Dejoie was in Havana for secret meetings with Ernesto "Che" Guevara who ran operations for a covert guerrilla financing and training base out of a heavily guarded beach villa in Tarará, about 20 miles outside of Havana along the Vía Blanca. There, Guevara worked with a small team of six staff officers. "No signs or directories indicate this address and the phone switchboard number is not listed anywhere but day and night exiled politicians, soldiers of fortune, U.S ex-paratroopers looking for a war, officers on the run from former dictator bosses, inventors with new demolition gadgets, come and go here from Nicaragua, Haiti, Costa Rica, Santo Domingo, Mexico and often from such neighboring states as Florida and Texas. Castro calls Guevara his 'military coordinator'-Guevara says, 'I'm the man in charge of impossible projects.'" See also Prints 29, 30, 31, 32, 34 and 35.
