Dom Rep Rebels Smuggled Bombs and Planes from U S
A Customs Bureau policeman said fighters and other military aircraft plus three tons of bombs and rocket materials were illegally exported from the United States to Dominican Republic revolutionaries. The gear was routed to Cuba where Cuban authorities said they broke up a related force. The items originated mainly in Pennsylvania and were loaded in Baltimore, flown to Cuba. Some aircraft came from across the United States, evading Florida’s watch by flying over it. No clear Florida stops were reported. Manola Castro, Cuba sports director, arrested in Miami on conspiracy to move arms to Cuba, posted $5,000 bond and was released pending federal grand jury action in Jacksonville on November 24.
