Seguramente el apostar cañones en Brownsville, Texas, apuntando hacia Matamoros, Tamaulipas, era la estrategia que se tenía preparada para invadir México. Situación que culminó con la invasión de Veracruz por la Marina Norteamericana, el 21 de abril de 1914. Recuerde que la Marina Americana estaba apostada en aguas tampiqueñas depués del "incidente" de día 9 de abril. Estas fotos del 5 DE ABRIL, SEGURAMENTE DE 1914, hablan que Woodrow Wilson ya venía preparando la provocación y el conflicto armado con México. Bain News used the sticker to print month, day and year. Why is it blanck?
