There it is plain as day.
Check out the chart on the right. Underneath the section labeled commanders, whose name is listed? If history is going to credit Reagan for the release of the 52 Iranian hostages, even though Carter did all of the work, then Kennedy takes the fall for The Bay of Pigs. He did, afterall, oversee the original ground troops plan, the changes to it, and then approved the final plan that failed.
