Description:
On April 6, 1915, two titans of the Mexican Revolution collided outside of the town of Celaya. Alvaro Obregon got there first and dug himself in with his machine guns and trained infantry. Pancho Villa soon arrived with a massive army including the best cavalry in the world at the time. Over the course of 10 days, these two would fight it out, and Villa's loss marked the beginning of the end for his hopes of being the last man standing.
