    I was just wondering what happened to Camilo Cienfuegos.
    I can't remember how he died? Did he get killed during the revolution? Could you give me some information about him?
    Gosh I hope I don't sound too stupid because I don't know ...

    In short, The plane he was flying was lost over the Atlantic Ocean shortly after the Revolution, either around the Coubre incident or the Playa Girdon (sp?). The Plane was never found.

    i don't think castro would go to such an extreme just because he got too popular. especially after his involvment in fighting the same cause as castro. but it seems strange that Cienfuegos' death is surrounded by mystery.

    MANY people mysteriously disappear in plane accidents. It happens quite often in the atlantic. Its kind of ridiculous to say Castro did it. Well, did he kill all the other random people whos planes have never been found?

    The CIA probally was behind it, at that time they were actively trying to assasinate Cuba's revolutionary leaders right?
