This Thursday after training our club Secretary, and noted Latino Princess, Becky Querido is making some Taco’s! As most of you know Becky is descended from a long line of Mexican legends. Her great-great grandfather Pancho Villa
<span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">seized<span class="apple-converted-space"> hacienda </span>land for distribution to peasants and soldiers. He<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>robbed and commandeered trains and, like the
other revolutionary generals, printed fiat money<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>to pay for his cause. Villa's men and supporters became known as<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><i>Villistas</i><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>during
the revolution from 1910 to roughly 1920.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">Villa's dominance in northern Mexico was broken in 1915 through a series of defeats he suffered at<span class="apple-converted-space"> Celaya</span><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Celaya" title="Battle of Celaya"></a>
<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>and<span class="apple-converted-space"> Agua Prieta </span>at the hands of Alvaro “Bell” Obregon<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>and<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>Plutarco Elias Calles. After
Villa's famous raid on Columbus, New Mexico, in 1916, US Army<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>General John J. Pershing tried unsuccessfully to capture Villa in a nine-month pursuit that ended when the United States entered into<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>WW
1<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>and Pershing was called back. Villa retired in 1920 and was given a large estate, which he turned into a "military colony" for his former soldiers. In 1923, he decided to get into the Taco business with a string
of quick serve/high quality Taco restaurants in the Southern states and as a result was assassinated, most likely on the orders of Obregon who had plans to open a competing chain of Taco restaurants using his nickname as a moniker.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
