        @BeschlossDC @mlong42947 Think Truman or Ike would let one of them rot in a Mexican jail? Where is the outrage?

        @BeschlossDC There's an African-American soldier in this photograph. But Blacks then were segregated in the American military. What gives?

        @KevinPaulGregg @BeschlossDC could have been part of an artillery unit that was separated to provide assistance to the 'white army'...?
