Cinco De Mayo

Don Quixote died a martyr.

General Ignacio Zaragoza Seguín selected me to cross the great Ocean, and plead with the inimitable one to travel to Mexico and war against our French oppressors.

The first sign of trouble came when we boarded our ship. It was a small merchant vessel. He referred to it as the Armada.

The day of the battle he refused a musket. He charged into the fray on his dusty nag, with nothing more than a tin sword. He was trampled to death by a herd of sheep he mistook for dragons.

But Mexico was free.
