Communist Cuban Naval PT boat, and motor launch Astern, refugees on board off Anguilla Island. This photograph taken from a Coast Guard patrol plane off Anguilla Island, Bahamas on Aug. 13, 1963 shows a Cuban Navy PT boat with a Cuban motor launch tied astern. The boats and a Cuban helicopter forcibly removed 19 Cuban refugees from the island.
