One of Kennedy's "wise men," Bundy played a crucial role in all of the major foreign policy and military decisions of the Kennedy administration and was retained by Lyndon B. Johnson for part of his tenure. Bundy was involved in the Bay of Pigs Invasion, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and the Vietnam War[1]. .
