There were several invasions of Cuba. First, the island was colonized by Christopher Columbus, who claimed it for Spain. In 1898, as part of the Spanish-American war, the United States invaded Cuba. In 1961, a number of Cuban exiles who had been forced out (or who had voluntarily left) when Fidel Castro took power, tried to reclaim the island, in what came to be known as the Bay of Pigs invasion. Their efforts failed and Cuba remained under the control of Castro.

Yes, I dont know specifics but they were going to invade from cuba and land in Texas and Louisiana. A great point to invade, Texas being the most well armed state.
Brigade 2506, a US counter-revolutionary force, invaded Cuba in April 1961. Known as the Bay of Pigs Invasion, its purpose was to attempt to overthrow the government established by Fidel Castro. It did not succeded.

The Soviet Union wouldn't invade Europe or the western hemisphere and the US wouldn't invade Cuba or Turkey
