I actually started working on a screenplay for it however there's a lot of red tape about getting permission from the families and Mexican government officials to actually write something like this, due to lawsuit reasons.
Thank you for the acknowledgement. I had the honor of serving in Jolo Osland against Abu Sayyaf. The locals were great to us. Even in Iraq, the Filipino workers were super nice. I recently took part I'm the ceremony to award Filipino WWII guerrilla fighters the Congressiona Gold Medal. Somewhere in the Philippines there is a monument dedicated to the Aztec Eagles. Of course, that would never happen in the US...
In the capital of the Philippines, Manila, there is a monument in honor of the pilots of the 🛩️ Squadron 201, this monument has an Eagle 🦅 Azteca, in allusion to the national symbol of Mexico 🇲🇽 and to the "Aztec Eagles" nicknames that the Mexican pilots had during the liberation of the Philippines. This monument is honored every year on the anniversary of the Battle of Luzon.
My sister-in-law's father, Héctor Espinoza Galván, was killed in the Philippines. She was always quite proud of the fact that her father was a member of "the Aztec Eagles".
Mexico did not have a military to fight a global war. But, they stood tall and avenged their dead sailors with terrible resolve. Mad respect to our neighbors to the south. You fought like Aztec warriors!
Many were promised citizenship if fought for USA...after war they were taken to border and had papers torn up in front of them....ironically they made vfw centers in Mexico and still would wave the American flag...honering a nation that turned their back on them
@timesthree5757 don't forget the cadets at school..rather than be captured by us military they wrapped themselves in Mexico flag and jumped to their deaths..these as I recall as young as ten year old
@timesthree5757 no you stole from us over and over the santa Ana family once owned vast area of land still named after them all they now own is a small house on a side dirt road
1:55 One of the reasons why Mexico does not attack other nations despite not agreeing with them is because the Mexican constitution prohibits it, the constitution establishes that the sovereignty of other countries must be respected and only act in a bellicose manner. when we are directly attacked. (This is also the reason why Mexico was the only country that protested against the annexation of Austria by Nazi Germany). That is why the only war outside the territory in which the country has been involved has been World War II, since the attack on the oil tankers was taken as a direct aggression, before that Mexico used its "neutral" position "to get refugees out of Europe.
Just found your channel! Germany has an air squad Named "Viva Zapata" since the Americans training them in West Germany said "They are crazier then the Mexican airmen" ( escuadron 201) . So they changed their name to Viva Zapata and to this day have the badge of Emilio Zapata .
@Jimmy Garcia México is in the American continent, correct. More specifically in the North American subcontinent. On this North American subcontinent there is also a nation called The United States of America. Both the continent AND the country were named after the Italian amerigo vespucci. The country is also referred to as the USA, US, or America. It's people are referred to as Americans. Also, not every country teaches that America is one continent. Some countries teach it as two continents ( North America and South America) also known as the Americas.
The "Aztec Eagles" was the only mexican army unit to participate directly in the war. However there were agreements between governments to allow mexican citizens to join the US Army. About half a million Mexicans and Mexican-american fought in the US Army, Navy and Air Corps. Also, mexican oil, rubber, steel and raw materials were paramount to the american war effort. Not to mention the working force in american factories (like the "Brazeros"). When Mexico and the US remember to be friends no one can stand against them.
@@InternetMexicanOfficial you should do a video on Hispanics fighting Japanese troops in Alaska islands. Once Japanese troops knew they were defeated, the troops did a banzai suicide attack.
There is a great display about the Aztec Eagles at the US Air Force Museum in Dayton Ohio. They also have info on Brazilian pilots and their role in WW2 who also flew P-47's.
My high school class is 90%+ Latino/Latina, in Los Angeles, and I find out today that not one student, including those with roots in Mexico, ever heard of the Flying Aztecs. So, after showing the opening scene in Saving Private Ryan, I showed a docu on the Flying Aztecs, and made sure that they took notes while watching it, and quizzed/discussed it after. I'm still annoyed about it.
If they aren’t allowed to hear about it in your schools, you only have yourself and your curriculum to be annoyed with. Mexicans, those of us raised between the two countries, know about this battalion. You’re a good example of why the American school system isn’t working. This man was proud to make this video, not annoyed. You should follow his lead. You’re their leader, you’re part of the traffic you’re bitching about, not just sitting in it. Step it up and make sure this is a lesson every year. Only then will things begin to change. It is a privilege to teach. To raise people up instead of calll them “others” and tear them down in TH-cam comments.
My dad who served in the Philippines told me about this squadron when I was a kid. My Tio Isidoro was in Luzon at the same time as my dad, knew that about the Mexican squadron. His other brother, Ezequiel was a corpsman in the United Kingdom. I have heard of some stories of the family participating in the war effort. Here's a bit of history, my father was the only American born citizen during that time. In the later years, two more brothers were in the American military in Vietnam/Korea and one serving in peace time. Glad you made this video.
Wai wait, how was your relative a corpsmen in the UK??? You have to share some details. In the US, a corpsmen can be green side, meaning they are attached to the Marines, and are really treated and regarded as a Marine. I wonder if it is similar in the UK with the royal Marines.
Nice piece. I had heard from my Chihuahuense parents that Mexico did participate in the WWII effort tho I never learned exactly how. Thanks! Y Que Viva Mexico!
As a half Latino and since my mother has passed I have been learning more and more about my Latino heritage. As a child I had always believed Mexico had no involvement in WWII other than Germans setting up shop there. I'm so happy to know Mexico stepped up and sent great heros to fight against this evil.
Thanks guy. I will definitely keep watching. I want to know more about how my people affected the US. 2 stories A street in East L. A. Was renamed from Brooklyn Ave. to Cesar E. Chavez Ave. one day I am on the bus and this guy next to me says to no one in particular, “was this street named after the boxer?” Someone said yes. I just looked at the floor and shook my head thinking I hope it wasn’t a Mexican who said yes. The guy from New York must have noticed me because he asked me, “it wasn’t?” I said no. He said “who was Cesar Chavez?” I said Cesar Chavez was a civil rights activist who fought for the rights of the migrant workers, better living conditions, better working conditions, better wages. The guy from New York says, oh, he was the Mexican Martin Luther King. I said exactly. The 2nd story I found very interesting. It has to do with Cinco De Mayo. I always knew it was the famous battle of Puebla. But not until recently did I learn the entire story. You see, Napoleon, not the one who fought George Washington, one of his decendents wanted to gain entry into the U. S. to give aide to the confederate army and possibly take down the U. S. that way. The little village of Puebla being the easiest access. The people of Puebla said, not happening. And the war is on. Napoleon is defeated. Scary to think what might have happened if the south had won the war. Everything Lincoln did to free the slaves would never have happened.
Thank you, make sure you share the story with others. Unfortunately this isn't a story that is well known. Mexico's contribution is often overlooked, and it's understandable given that Mexico had such a minor involvement, but it is still good for people to know.
@@InternetMexicanOfficial i take great issue with that fallacy. 15,000 to 30,000 Mexican nationals volunteered to serve under American command despite the history of criminal US imperialist interventions in Mexico. Approximately, half a million "Mexicans" as in US resident Mexicans or first generation Mexican-Americans "sacked up" and went to war as second class Americans. So yeah, no surprise here that the "Mexican contributions" are dimished. In Vietnam Hispanics were 18% of casualties, while only 9% of the population. All the elite and experimental units have disproportionately drawn from this demographic. But contributions are always belittled.
Gracias por tu trabajo hermano a los verdaderos mexicanos nos sigue enorgulleciendo el escuadrón # 201 y a al en ese entonces presidente que no se le arrugaron para colaborar con USA
Well, we are making baby steps every year. On September 16th there’s a parade organice by the military, in remembrance the Independence Day and on it the military display’s weaponry made by them. The idea it’s not depend by the US weaponry, the military has they’re own department of engineering and design, studying the ergonomics from their soldiers, they fabricate analice the prototypes munitions to make their supplies….
For a country of its size, Mexico is a very resource rich nation with an incredible manufacturing and farming workforce. You never hear about stuff made it Mexico being crap, unlike China. Unfortunately after centuries of war against just about everyone like France, Spain, the axis and the U.S. to name a few. That is one exhausted country.
@@jeshuavega4846 Why would the USA care? If anything USA would probably be happy. Canada and Mexico know if they got attacked the USA would help. Mexico having a strong army could mean they can handle the cartels better. The USA used to try to give a bunch of money to Mexico military for war on drugs
One thing I remember about WASP and the Eagles was that they were respected by the eagles. US forces did not traditionally enjoy training with female pilots for fear of being seen as pansies but the eagles, I heard, saw it as an opportunity to flirt and learn from very capable pilots.
Unfortunately, the USA has no monument recognising the volunteer Mexican fighter pilots. They also never mention their combat exploits in the II WW in public schools. Years later, President Mateos became the first Mexican President that embarked on a global world tour of good will. He was stunned that European nations awaited his arrival by the thousands. He flew to India and millions showed up to greet him as well as other Asian nations. Japan rolled out a red carpet from the airport all the way to the heart of Tokyo with millions cheering him. Japan immediately opened Mexican restaurants and night clubs in his honor. It brought tears of gratitude because his next door neighbor the USA, only a camera man and a few news reporters come to greet a Mexican President. He said: All nations should respect each other and their elected leaders. Things haven"t changed, especially since Trump said most Mexican immigrants are criminals. But then the Italian immigrants were treated the same, Jews, Asians and the Irish and the list goes on.
Guys I recommend the movie WALK OUT. The difference a group of Mexican Kids made in the changing of how Mexican kids were treated in East L. A. schools.
There is a movie about this, "Escuadrón 201" made in the 50's (In spanish of course). Unfortunately it doesn't stick to facts and it's more like propaganda. But there is a short passage in the movie "Salón México" where we can see the real planes already in Mexico after WWII.
Hello this is 2022 and we need to here about these type of Mexican operations from all any connected operations along side the US. All these TRUE FACTS should and MUST be presented in the US history books. I think .... No I don't think....But a Movie must be made for all to see especially our Mexican American people to show them that we had a Roll in history along side the US.
They don't want to do That becouse the hate sales more in a ignorant people just gol back to 2016. And know 2023 racist people like 🤮🤮Rom thesantis they aré a huye Bull of idiots. We been fithing as a good American country a long the side WITH USA .It is just for create hate between us

Esa mamada que.... Dicen que los estados unidos hundió los buques petroleros mexicanos a nombre de los nazis, por qué México proveía de petróleo a Alemania durante la segunda guerra por eso los volvió contra ellos y bien sabes que los nazis no lo harían y tus picadores los gringos si
@@evsgo95 estas re-pendejo mijo, el que hundió los buques fue el capitán de la kriegsmarine Reinhard Suhren, los hundió porque los confundió con buques de EEUU portando una falsa bandera italiana(ya que los buques petroleros en esa época no tenían permiso legal de portar el escudo). Sobre lo de Alemania, no se si sepas que México no suplia a alemania desde la guerra civil española, mexico, desde el estallido de la guerra civil española, expreso su repudio a los países fascistas, y corto lazos con alemania cuando estos invadieron Austria. Pero claro... para la mayoría de la gente es más fácil venir a contar leyendas urbanas para gente ignorante que informarse como tu comprenderás
The Aztec Eagles deserve a movie of their own. They were heroes in the liberation of the Philippines.
Exactly
I would watch it over and over.
There is a documentary in TH-cam, it’s called Escuadrón 201. Totally in Spanish but 100% worth it
I actually started working on a screenplay for it however there's a lot of red tape about getting permission from the families and Mexican government officials to actually write something like this, due to lawsuit reasons.
They won't because they ain't black

@@evsgo95 estas re-pendejo mijo, el que hundió los buques fue el capitán de la kriegsmarine Reinhard Suhren, los hundió porque los confundió con buques de EEUU portando una falsa bandera italiana(ya que los buques petroleros en esa época no tenían permiso legal de portar el escudo).
Sobre lo de Alemania, no se si sepas que México no suplia a alemania desde la guerra civil española, mexico, desde el estallido de la guerra civil española, expreso su repudio a los países fascistas, y corto lazos con alemania cuando estos invadieron Austria.
Pero claro... para la mayoría de la gente es más fácil venir a contar leyendas urbanas para gente ignorante que informarse como tu comprenderás
Dam ok
