Grenada Invasion
Tuesday October 28, 2008
On October 25, 1983, the United States led an assault on the island nation with over 1,000 troops. The force also consisted of 300 additional troops from the Caribbean. President Ronald Reagan authorized the attack because of possible links to the Soviet Union and Cuba. The military forces found documents and weapons stockpiles that proved the connection. The United States has been involved in many wars throughout its history. Track US involvement using this timeline.
