EMacionga Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 November 20th, 1910. Opposition leader Francisco I Madero calls for a general insurrection in Mexico because of voting fraud and corruption by the government of dictator Porfirio Diaz. the first great revolution of the 20th century (1910-1920) woud cost an estimated million dead. It saw some of the first air-air combat (with pistols) but no armoured vehicles that I know of other than the use of dynamite trains used to breach fortified city walls.

airportable Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 but no armoured vehicles that I know of other than the use of dynamite trains used to breach fortified city walls. Had a look through a couple hundred pics. and no, found no armoured vehicles. But found a super pic. of a line up of large touring cars, spare wheel/tyres on the front bumper and more fire power than a WIMIK!! Nothing new in warfare. Andy.

Great War truck Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 That sounds like the dodges they used. Where was the photo? As you say, nothing changes. We relearn the hard lessons of yesteryear time and time again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
