Military Elias Wessin y Wessin passed away over the weekend and was buried at the Puerta del Cielo cemetery with full military honors. Wessin continues to be a controversial figure in Dominican history with some calling him a patriot of the nation while others label him a traitor. Wessin was the leader of the 1963 coup d'etat that pushed democratically elected president Juan Bosch out of power only seven months after he was elected.
