From October 25, 1983, the United States,  Barbados, Jamaica and members of the Organization of Eastern Caribbean  States landed ships on Grenada, defeated Grenadian and Cuban resistance  and overthrew Coard's government. October 25 is a national holiday of  Grenada, called Thanksgiving Day, to commemorate this event.Many of these photos came from Jeff Mcannally of "Bravo Company 2/505  Inf. 82nd Airborne on patrol in the jungle, air assaulting an objective,  securing a compound and the medic of 2/505 preparing to return to the  US on 23 Dec. 1983."</blockquote>
