Alberto Bayo dies in Havana. Born in Cuba, during the Spanish colony, he was led in North Africa to the war of the Rif in the Spanish army, although he had a vision favorable to the rifesa resistance. During the War of 36 he flew as a pilot against Franco. After losing the war, he moved to Mexico and was part of the Caribbean Legion, created in 1947 to expel the Dominican Republic and Nicaraguan dictators. In 1955 he joined Fidel Castro and participated in the Cuban revolution against the dictatorship of Fulgencio Batista, teaching guerrilla tactics. In the photo, standing next to Castro.
