[American Insurrectos, Juarez, Mexico]
Postcard image reads: American Insurrectos [American Insurgents aka American Mercenaries aka American Soldiers of Fortune ], taking first Federal stronghold, Juarez, Mexico 1131. We have no information on what number the 1131 represents. The American Insurrectos seen in this image are standing on an adobe brick wall. There is no information about the names for these men. Adobe homes are in the background. The men are armed with a variety of weapons: bolt action rifles; revolvers; repeating rifles; and one man, far left, is armed with bayonet knife. When the Mexican Revolution began, "Soldiers of Fortune" traveled from around the world and came to El Paso, Texas and Ciudad Juarez to take part in the Mexican Revolution. Many were paid and many more saw no payment at all. Some of the better known organized soldiers of fortune were the Madero's El Falange De Los Estranjeros - also known as the "Gringo Rag-Tag Battalion"; Pancho Villa's American Legion: and Obregon's or Carranza's Armies. The hired soldiers of fortune fought on both sides of the Revolution. Better known individual soldiers of fortune were men like Sam Dreben, the fighting Jew, and Guiseppi Garibaldi.
