Mexico's fighter squadron 201 was the first and only time that a Mexican unit has been sent to make war on foreign soil. The squadron was called "the Aztec Eagles". The History Guy remembers the Mexican Expeditionary Air Force.

This is something I don't recall ever hearing about.

Found that one and watched it, interesting bit of history.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

Samuel Adams
