Nope - they started to sail toward Cuba on the 11th and did not land until the 22nd. --mav 05:57, 10 Jun 2004 (UTC)

  The date for the Marines landing at Guantanamo Bay is accurate.  The 22nd is the V Corps landings.

Sopranos Finale[edit]

It belongs here. Dont mess with it.

Vilisca axe murders[edit]

I really think the Villisca Axe murders should be listed here, not just in the death section. I mean, it had such a big affect on Iowa, and is easily one of the brutalliest (probably not a word; oh well) murders in America in the last century. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.63.123.184 (talk) 23:48, 26 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Freddy Garcia[edit]
