    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?

Mobilization was for service on the Mexican border.
  • Seuss. said:
    Also in the Robert Runyon collection - identified there as the 14th New York Infantry at Mission, TX

    Thanks to both of you for your research. We'll add some of the information to the record the next time we update.
