On 13 March 1979, while Eric Gairy was out of Grenada, “the real revolutionaries” of the New Jewel Movement (NJM) under the leadership of Comrade Maurice Bishop masterminded “a successful armed takeover of the True Blue army barracks and the island’s sole radio station.”
On that day, the People’s Revolutionary Government of Grenada (PRG) was born.
