What was the date when the occupation from 1905-1909 ended?
Dunno, but that's how we got what we have today: Guantanamo.
"The United States is given jurisdiction over Guantánamo Bay `generally to do any and all things necessary to fit the premises for use as coaling or naval stations only, and for no other purpose.' "
from the 1903 Treaty forced on Cuba by the United States
