naval base

Present time of the grumbles

Translation: Osmagly Herrera
 
From Malone’s window, the two floor houses with red roofs offer the most innocent of visions.  Everything is quite apparently. The warships have come out to their training in the Caribbean, and only an oil tanker can be seen at the distance.
 
Not many radical changes indicating a bigger hostility than the accustomed have taken place in Guantanamo Naval base. Although some signs have been made, and the combatants follow them day and night.
 
On December 7th 1989, when we received the mortal remains of the internationalists that died in Africa, the neighbour could not stand it and he grumbled again. At 10.00 am they shot against post 17 and at 1.00 pm against post 18. None soldier died, but they could have.
  
Caimanera people went to the streets, and everybody showed their feeling, their hate towards imperialism, and against its fascist methods.
 
Circumstances and have force us learn about the Yankees.  According to the experts in this topic, the difference today with other periods of the naval Base is not in the number of ships- that is more less the same. The difference is in the frequency with which the main naval units visit the Base.
  
Commonly this main units, like the battleships, flattops, helicopter carriers, amphibian assault ships and others, also arrived at Gtmo Bay but the time between each visit was longer .
 
The Base has been and still   is a setting for their “fashion parades". Each naval device American men design, appears immediately in Gtmo Bay.  And it is right where they prove and evaluate their modern and destructive devices.
