USN officer bids farewell to one of the last Haitian refugees in Guantanamo.

  • Original caption: "
    Vice Adm. Harold Gehman congratulates and bids farewell to Margarita Uria Sanchez who is the last Cuban migrant to board a plane which will take her and other Cubans from Naval Station Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, to Homestead Air Force Base, Fla., on Jan. 31, 1996. The Cubans are the last to leave the migrant processing center at Guantanamo Bay. A military, Joint Task Force 160 was originally established on May 18, 1994, to provide humanitarian assistance to Haitians escaping political strife. A wave of Cuban migrants followed in August of that same year. All Haitians and Cubans recovered at sea were transported to Guantanamo Bay. At its height in early October 1994, the tent city at Guantanamo Bay sheltered more than 46,000 Haitian and Cuban migrants. Gehman is the Deputy Commander in Chief of the United States Atlantic Command. DoD photo by Cpl. Adrian Olguin, U.S. Marine Corps.
