Mr. Liebeler. You stopped working as a seaman in 1957?
Mr. Pena. Yes.
Mr. Liebeler. Were you in Cuba in April or May of 1959?
Mr. Pena. I think that's the last time I was in Cuba.
Mr. Liebeler. What was the purpose of your trip to Cuba at that time?
Mr. Pena. I went to Cuba—I don't know. I went to have an operation. Yes.
Mr. Liebeler. While you were in Cuba, did you have any contact with any officials in the Castro government?
Mr. Pena. No; not any.
Mr. Liebeler. Have you ever expressed a favorable attitude toward the Castro regime?
Mr. Pena. No; I never was for—I was against Batista, but I never was even—I didn't even know Castro.
