🇦🇴 #Angola #postagestamp issued 1957 | #stampcollection #stamp A few years later: Operación Carlota in 1975 in which the Castro regime decided to send around 350k #Cubans to help the MPLA of Agostinho Neto install Marxism in the country. The civil war lasted over 13 years and according to some estimates over 2000 Cubans died. The rest came back mutilated, traumatized and some sick. Today, these veterans are mostly abandoned. | Años después ocurriría la Operación Carlota, donde desplegaron 82 miembros del Minint vestidos de civil para Angola. Alrededor de 350k cubanos fueron parte de la guerra civil que duró 13 años. El punto era ayudar al comunista Agostinho Neto tomar el poder. Murieron alrededor de 2000 cubanos y muchos mutilados, traumatizados regresaron para ser olvidados y quedar recogiendo basura en las calles. #Cuba
