And, of course, an added bonus not mentioned is that the US troops got BBQ that night!

My grand-dad served under Pershing in the Mexican and European campaigns. Armored Calvary -- lied about his age and joined at 14. He was a very tough guy. He and his brother became NYC Sand-Hogs after the war. In the tunnels, the two brothers took out 12 thugs in a brawl at shovel-point.

A neighbor of mine -- a gypsy, btw -- had an uncle who was a teamster under General Black Jack. After the war he went back to the family trade -- robbing banks. He was on the lam on the East Side of NYC after a robbery, and saw a runaway six-horse wagon. He walked out into the middle of the street in front of it and grabbed the harnesses and got the rig under control. Saved a few lifes. Lammed it out to the western territories for a few years.

I have serious doubts about the veracity of this article. It claims that this action ended islamic violence for 50 years. However, if you go to the history books, you find out that the insurrection was by a group called the Moros, and the insurrection ended with the four-day battle of Bagsak Mountain on Jolo Island in the Philippines, which took place from 11 to 15 June 1913 - two years after this event supposedly took place.

Until someone puts up more proof than an e-mail, I will write this story off as myth. 59 Posted on 10/05/2001 09:38:33 PDT by dirtboy

Yup, the General did this. It seemed very effective: http://www.melchinger.com/war/general_john_pershing.htm
