Marines Killed in Nicaragua Highlight Policy Dispute
Eight American Marines were killed in an ambush in Nicaragua while repairing telegraph lines for the Nicaraguan government. The incident intensifies criticism of Hoover’s continuation of the Coolidge era policy to train and temporarily command a Nicaraguan national police force by U.S. Marines. The controversy centers on whether the 1920s mission should be temporary or become an open-ended U.S. policing role, with calls for Congress to investigate why Hoover extended the Marines’ stay instead of transferring duties to a Nicaraguan national guard and to end the occupation.
