The National Bank of Kuwait on Failaka Island. Some reading suggests this bank never actually opened. It was allegedly due to open about the day that Iraq invaded. The story of the bank is cloudy, and what events may have led to its particular targeting are as varied as ones imagination.

During the late 50's, when Fidel Castro and his men were based in the Sierra Maestra, fighting, they established a base. Comandancia La Plata. It is said that Fidel personally tested every weapon before letting it be used by his men. A tree near his hut, still alive, was his usual target. It is riddled with bullets.
