  "By April 8 [1916], General Pershing was more than four hundred miles into Mexico with a troop strength of 6,675 men. The expedition set up its headquarters in the town of Colonia Dublan and its supply base on a tract of land near the Casas Grandes River. " Colonia Dublán was a Mormon colony in Chihuahua, Mexico. www.archives.gov/publications/prologue/1997/winter/mexica... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colonia_Dubl%C3%A1n
