Talk:Enrique Líster

Missing material

Some missing material 1. Lister almost certainly held the rank of general in the Castro's armed forces, especially at the time of the Bay of Pigs. 2. He is supposed to have had to flee to Cuba because he was sought for the murder of a man who raped his mother. 3. His first name is said to be Jesus, which if so would not be "appropriate" for a communist general. El Jigue 1-10-07

Unrelated to main article

Removing this sentence as it is not related to the main topic of the article, unless someone can prove that Lister and Sidney were at the same campaign. (Another example is Albert Sidney Johnston who served as a general in the armies of Texas, the United States, and the Confederacy.) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 148.87.1.171 (talk) 20:35, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
