He became one of Castro’s top guerilla commanders, known as the “Hero of Yaguajay” after winning a key battle of the Cuban Revolution.He was appointed head of Cuba’s armed forces shortly after the victory of Castro’s rebel army in 1959. He was presumed dead when a small plane he was traveling in disappeared during a night flight from Camagüey to Havana later that year.
