In the 1950s, the Opa-locka airport—specifically Building 67—became the site of a large [[CIA]] operation, PBSuccess, run by operatives including [[E. Howard Hunt]].<ref>{{cite web| url= http://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/community/article1950536.html |last= Chardy| first= Alfonso | title= "Opa-locka field was once the site of secret CIA base", ''Miami Herald'', 20 April 2013|website= [[Miami Herald]]| access-date= 5 April 2018 }}</ref> The operation helped launch the [[1954 Guatemalan coup d'état|U.S.-led coup in Guatemala]] in 1954 and was a precursor to the [[Bay of Pigs Invasion]] in 1961. The airfield center then served as a listening post for [[Cuba]] until the 82nd Airborne took over Opa-locka Airbase during the [[Cuban Missile Crisis]].<ref>{{cite web| url= https://www.cia.gov/library/center-for-the-study-of-intelligence/kent-csi/vol44no5/html/v44i5a06p.htm | archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20100426220741/https://www.cia.gov/library/center-for-the-study-of-intelligence/kent-csi/vol44no5/html/v44i5a06p.htm | url-status= dead | archive-date= April 26, 2010 |last= Gleichauf| first= Justin F. | title= "Keeping Up on Cuba: A Listening Post in Miami," CIA Library, ''Center for the Study of Intelligence - Studies Archive Indexes.''
