Cuba readied for a Communist Party congress about its future with a tribute to the past on Saturday, staging a military parade for the 50th anniversaries of the US-backed Bay of Pigs invasion and the declaration of Cuban socialism. Granma was used to transport 82 guerrilla fighters including their leader, Fidel Castro, his brother Raul Castro, Che Guevara and Camilo Cienfuegos, from Mexico to Cuba in 1956, launching the Cuban revolution.
