A Private First Class from 3rd Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment, is seen on a beach on the eastern shore of Puerto Rico during the Dominican Missile Crisis of 1962. He is armed with the standard issue United States Rifle, Caliber .308, M14, manufactured by Harrington & Richardson.
The Dominican Missile Crisis was sparked when Nazi convinced the Axis-friendly dictator of the Dominican Republic - Rafael Trujilo - to allow the deployment of German medium and intermediate range ballistic missiles to the country. The debacle nearly caused World War III.
The Dominican Missile Crisis was a major test for the more muscular and assertive anti-fascist foreign policy of socialist President Jacob Olson. The successful navigation of the crisis would pave the way for the combat role of U.S. troops in South Africa the following year.
