The Irish Fought for Mexico (Against the USA)
Рет қаралды 7,027
5 жыл бұрынThe Battle of Churubusco was on August 20, 1847 during the Mexican-American War. It was the battle where the San Patricio (Saint Patrick's) Battalion, made up largely of Irish Immigrant deserters from the US Army, made their last stand.
Fifty of the captured San Patricio's were later hanged as the battle for Chapultepec raged on.
This was the Museo Nacional de las Intervenciones. Very little is in English.
Banda de Gaitas del Batallon de San Patricio [St. Patrick's Battalion Pipes & Drums]: The only bagpipe band in Mexico is named after the battalion, and based at the former Convent of Churubusco in Mexico City, which now houses the Museum of Foreign Interventions (Museo Nacional de las Intervenciones).

Imagine coming to the United States, getting off the boat and being told "Sign here" and then told "Congratulations, you are in the Army now". Then, you are sent to fight and kill people you have no quarrels with. They had the courage to say "No", but most of them paid for it with their lives

The Saint Patrick Battalion on August 20, 1847. The battalion was made up of Irish and Scottish soldiers who came to Mexico City with the United States Army during the Mexican-American War.Deciding the American side was unjust, they switched sides at the Churubusco Fort in the south of the city. When the fort fell, the battalion’s surviving members were executed as traitors.
