EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Etats-Unis et Mexique; pres du camp americain de San-Antonio: troupes americaines masses le long d'une voie ou stationne un train charge de reguliers mexicains que le president Carranza envoyait alors la poursuite de Villa" (translated to "United States and Mexico; near the American camp of San-Antonio: American troops massed along a track or a train stationed with Mexican regulars that President Carranza was sending to pursue Villa"), was published in the French magazine "L'Illustration" in 1916. The image captures a significant moment during the Mexican Revolution when the United States military was involved in border conflicts with Mexico. The photograph shows a large group of American soldiers standing along a railway track, with a train loaded with Mexican soldiers in the background. The Mexican troops were being sent by their president, Venustiano Carranza, to pursue the infamous Mexican revolutionary leader, Pancho Villa. The exact location of the photograph is not specified, but it is believed to be taken near the American camp of San-Antonio, Texas. The image provides a glimpse into the military tactics of the time, with both American and Mexican forces utilizing the railway system for transportation. The soldiers are seen in a disciplined formation, ready for action. The photograph is a testament to the complexities of the Mexican Revolution and the involvement of foreign powers in the conflict. The photograph is part of the "Collection de la Guerre IV" in "L'Illustration" Tome CXLVII, which covered the war news from January to June 1916. The creator of the photograph remains unknown, adding to the intrigue and historical value of the image.
