I was in the 4th or 5th grade when the Bay of Pigs happened. JFK was supposed to be against communism. JFK was probably a joke of a President, yet he knew how to look good for the TV cameras. The nation of Austria tried to rebel against communist back in 1956. Radio Free Europe kept telling them, revolt, the USA will send planes. They revolted. When come the planes.?? Never any planes. The revolt was crushed. The USA has a poor record of support with regards to sending planes.
It was Hungary not Austria.
