July 27, The Day USA Invaded Haiti
Did you know?
On July 27th 1915, three thousand United States Marines, led by
Admiral William B. Caperton, entered Port-au-Prince Haiti the night
that a Haitian mob entered the French embassy, took president Jean
Vilbrun Guillaume Sam, killed him, and dismembered his body.
That was the beginning of the 19 year U.S. occupation of Haiti from
1915 to 1934
