The Bay of Pigs was an invasion in 1961 authorized by JFK, it was an attempt to overthrow Castro in Cuba. The US trained Cuban exiles and rebels to lead it. In response to the Bay of Pigs, Cuba and Russia became even closer. Russia secretly shipped missiles to Cuba that were then targeted at the U.S. for the protection from future invasions. It reflected badly upon JFK because the U.S. didn't back up the Cuban exiles when the plan failed and they were quickly taken out by Castro's forces. It showed poor judgment skills and poor leadership. Although, it was his fault, he was highly influenced by the military leaders at the time. Their names i can't remember
