An important fact to remember about Grenada is that, upon our invasion, it was discovered and proven that Grenada was, in fact, being used as a weigh station for the flow of arms from Cuba through Nicaragua on to other communist insurgent efforts throughout Latin America. Amongst the proof were arms that were of the same lot & ID numbers as those discovered in the hands of Sandinista sponsored communist rebels in El Salvador. The Soviet Union was pumping all they could in the way of cash, Cuba in the form of troops and other communist front nations, such as Czechosolovokia and others, to furnish those arms in their perpetual desire to rule Central America and thereby estabish a foothold of power in the western hemisphere. Fortunately, thanks to Ronald Reagan, the port of Managua is not today used as a Soviet nuclear submarine base or aircraft carrier turning basin.
