In case anyone doesn’t know, ‘Cinqo de Mayo’ commemorates the Mexican army’s unlikely victory over the French at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862.   Under the leadership of Mexican General Ignacio Zaragoza Seguín, the outnumbered Mexicans defeated a much better-equipped French army that had not been defeated in almost 50 years. I’ll keep you updated every day during the shooting over the next few days (Also please note…we have had a possible ‘hack’ or some other problem we are still investigating on the AEBN feeds to the website. AEBN are being really great during this, and are a very cool bunch of people – but until we resolve what happened, the Feeds will be temporarily down…more on this as it proceeds in a timely way)
