I was attached to FAETUPAC DET II upper Northwest. Our base was put on alert and we were shut down. No one was to leave the base. We were waiting to see just what had happen. At that time it was thought that Cuba was involved and we weren't sure what was going to happen.
This was not too long after the Bay of Pigs incident.

O Almighty Lord God, who neither slumberest nor sleepest; Protect and assist, we beseech thee, all those who at home or abroad, by land, by sea, or in the air, are serving this country, that they, being armed with thy defence, may be preserved evermore in all perils; and being filled with wisdom and girded with strength, may do their duty to thy honour and glory; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
