Cuban Veterans in Bolivia to Pay Homage to Che

Havana, Oct 5 (ACN) A group of Cuban war veterans who fought alongside 
Argentinean-born Ernesto Che Guevara is in Santa Cruz, Bolivia, to pay 
homage to the guerrilla fighter while attending the world congress of 
solidarity with Cuba.

Enrique Acevedo, who fought with Che in several battles and later wrote 
the book of memoirs "Descamisados," told Prensa Latina he was very 
proud to be visiting Bolivia right on the 40th anniversary of the 
assassination of his former Commander in La Higuera. Enrique and his 
brother Rogelio Acevedo are heading the Cuban delegation to the 
Congress.

Enrique said he was very moved by visiting the sites where Che fought.
He noted that he could have been one of his partners there in Bolivia.

Also travelling with the group is Leonardo Tamayo -Urbano-, who 
accompanied Che in his guerrilla activities in Africa and Bolivia.
Enrique and Rogelio Acevedo, Tamayo and Rafael Daussa, the Cuban 
ambassador to Bolivia, will be named "Distinguished Sons" of Caimiri, 
the town where the Congress of solidarity with Cuba will take place.
