Very interesting.

Olvidados mis huevos!!! Esos Héroes estan en letras doradas en el Congreso!!

They don't teach you this in U.S schools. I never heard of it.

Not forgotten, celebrated every year in Mexico

forgotten ?.... The Saint Patrick's Battalion is commemorated in Mexico on September 12, in honor of the soldiers, mostly of Irish origin, who fought on the Mexican side during the U.S. invasion of Mexico from 1846 to 1848.

This almost brought me to tears. As a history buff, i never knew this and as a Mexican, goddamn proud to have the valient men of Ireland by our side. Its still an honor and may they rest in glory. From now on, on our independence day, ill be honored to put up the irish flag for the fallen soldiers. Long live Ireland. 🇮🇪🇲🇽

Tiochfaid ar la🇮🇪

Being half Irish and Mexican i would of definitely would of fought on the Mexican side

Septiembre 16 viva Mexico viva nuestros hermanos irlandeses🍀🇮🇪🇲🇽

Anyone who has family that fought in the Mexican American War, should check out a fraternal organization called the Descendants of Mexican War Veterans.

May sheilds be granted infernal rest

And the slavery he help Abraham for freeing them and was the second preson or Abraham's right hand man for the libaration of slaves etc... : Aidan James Shields

Hey me again

Hi their his great great great grade son. Thanks for spreading the info but also some parts of the storys are not so true. Ps Aidan James Shields etc...

Wow, they always bit the hand didnt they

My goodness, these boys know more about my lineage history than I do! Amazing and so glad their keeping the history alive! Well done, and put together! My grandmother was the daughter of one of Alexander Faribault's son.!

Oh nice so I am related to two famous James of history😂 James Shields James Buchanan

The Saint Patrick's Batallion still exists!!! They commemorate the San Diego Churubusco Battle every first Sunday monthly. They hold a tatoo with bagpipes and drums to play irish music. It happens at San Diego's. Convent. Erin go bragh ☘️

I remember those days, ah the good ol days. You know i was hung that day? Most dont believe me but its true, im dead.

How many of our heroes are also murderous men in uniforms.

Imagine devastating a weaker neighbor because you wanted to keep your slaves

As a Mexican Irish American I love the San patricios but I don’t know what James shields has anything to do with this video that’s was kinda weird

Thanks for this video ❤

air burials at the wapakootah hill they'd put the bodies up on stakes to get them higher to their gods.

Here's a little history factoid. You know that little tri-angle chunk of land with the mary statue on it in between the co-op(Cenex) and the bottom of the via-duct right in front of Alexander Faribault's house, and the Library, and the community center? On your way to frog-town? That's where they buried all the Tee-Pee Tonka and the Wapa-koota natives. Won't find that in your history books. Cheers. 🤣😉👍 Thanks for this. If you ever want to know the TRUTH. We're available. Peace treaty, was a peace slaughter

Great video. I graduated Bethlehem Academy. (B.A.) 2001' Scott Hanson was one of my teachers. One of the nicest people I've ever met. Honestly. Psychology, Sociology, History. I learned alot from that man. My Great Grandfather was Al Jasinski who might have opened a bar called Grandpa Al's. Cheers to history. Still in town doing ghost tours if anybody wants to have some pizza and beverages.

BATALLON DE SAN PATRICIO, HEROES EN MEXICO, E IRLANDA.

Saludos de un irlandés en San Francisco. Muy orgullosa de Los San Patricio y agradecida por los grandes lazos de cariño entre nuestras dos personas por ellos. Viva Mexico y Erin go Bragh.

The fact that the only reason I even KNOW about this is because of a song by an obscure Irish folk singer on TH-cam is almost criminal. The history classes were like “ok so we beat the British- oh by the way, they burned the White House down- uhhh manifest destiny- yatayatayata, boring boring boring- then THE CIVIL WAR.” That was in AMERICAN history, mind you, not just world history.

Amazing job, phellas, no comments because you went beyond and above!

After that we can give the land back to the Aztecs, then the Mayans and the tribes before that. As far as Texas is concerned, lets give the land back to the Comanches, and they give it back to the Apacback Wooly Mammoths who had the land before that. Victimhood forever. Did the Irish Republic negotiate in bad faith with the British in the Good Friday agreement? If not, the issue is settled.

Fact check. I don't think Sherman was in the Mexican War.

A heartfelt thank you for your music from a fellow seitsikko bandsman ❤

This was great. Thanks so much, always looking for any new details I can catch :-) 3:33 13:07/8 13:26 13:46 13:53 14:05

Love this!! I know a few of the musicians, and they really are top players.

This is great! I always heard about this venture. My great grandfather, Dr. Arthur Curtis (A.C.) Rogers was one of the investors and went on an expedition. His brother-in-law, Walter Coffin, died in a flood. I always wondered what Dr. A.C. Rogers wife, Phoebe, thought about her brother dying in Venezuela. I have read the telegram announcing his death and have also seen the claim on Walter's life insurance policy.

I’m pretty sure Sherman did not in fact serve in Mexico

They fought with their hearts

THIS TIME WE GOT NUCLEAR POWER REACTORPLANTBITCOIN MIGHTY DOLLAR SHIZOPRENIA DASHES

Ah yes. The St. Patrick Battalion

This makes much more proud of the people of this country proud to be chicano

Funny thing is my name is Charles Xavier Shields

And just so you know he wasn't an Irish man he was a Scotch-Irish men I im a Shields from his same lineage we stopped in southern Indiana we are Scotch-Irish we're not Irish there's a difference

Awesome video! Wish you guys had more subscribers, these videos are absolutely amazing. Top notch work! Go Cardinals!!

Great video! Very nice work. I played on Bruce Smith field while playing football for the BA Cardinals. Bruce Smith is an icon for Faribault and the state of MN!

As an Irishman I am proud of Los San Patricio's. Anyone who fights for the Anglos is a disgrace and traitor.

⚡️SAN PATRICIO ⚡️

Many thanks for sharing this. Amazing history.

As an Irish man who's still trying to fight the mighty BRITISH empire for our land.and if Mexico ever fancy reclaiming there rightful territory,count me in reform the St.Patrick battalion and fight for Mexico side 💣⚰️🏴‍☠️🇮🇪🇲🇽🍀🍀

As an Irish-American this guy is a disgrace and traitor. Viva Los San Patricio's, Viva Mexico.
