The Pancho Villa Expedition—officially known in the United States as the Mexican Expedition[1] and sometimes colloquially referred to as the Punitive Expedition—was a military operation conducted by the United States Armyagainst the paramilitary forces of Mexican revolutionary Francisco "Pancho" Villa from 1916 to 1917 during the Mexican Revolution. The expedition was launched in retaliation for Villa's attack on the town of Columbus, New Mexico, and was the most remembered event of the Border War. The expeditions had one objective: to capture Villa dead or alive and put a stop to any future forays by his paramilitary forces on American soil.[2] The official beginning and ending dates of the Mexican Expedition are March 14, 1916, and February 7, 1917

Re: Antique Mexican Border War Footlocker
This is my Grandfathers (M M Walker) foot locker. I found this Veterans card file here (http://www.digitalarchives.state.pa.us/archive.asp?view=ArchiveItems&ArchiveID=9&FL=W&FID=230992&LID=231016) Mervin Walker. His name is spelled wrong here but all the other info is correct. (Marvin Monroe Walker) My mother told me after here he went to France and was one of the presidents guards. Don't know which one. I may be able to find more info as I am starting to clear out my mom's house.
