    3. The title of a documentary by Mark Day of California is "San Patricos". Bill McDonald has shot a new version, entitled "One Man's Hero" in Durango, Mexico. The fate of the San Patricos was sad and cruel, as the US meted out severe punishment to the Irish group when the Americans finally overran Mexican territory. Go to http://www.thefenians.com/recordings.html#roguesclips to hear the story in song. For information about "The San Patricos" go to Mark Day's web page http://www.day-communications.com/in_distribution/hunger.htm The Irish Mexican connection is explored at http://www.elandar.com/back/www-march96/andar/feature/feature.htm For more information about the story of the Saint Patrick's Brigade visit Tom Berenger On-line: http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Set/9124/write.html The Celtic Connection State of Texas also tells the story of the San Patricos with pictures and music to accompany the text at http://users.ev1.net/~gpmoran/STATETX.htm Ellen
