They should have one about this.

"The Battle of Camarón (French: Bataille de Camerone) which occurred over ten hours[1]:21 on 30 April 1863 between the French Foreign Legion and the Mexican army, is regarded as a defining moment in the Foreign Legion's history. A small infantry patrol, led by Captain Jean Danjou and Lieutenants Clément Maudet and Jean Vilain, numbering just 65 men[1]:5 was attacked and besieged by a force that may have eventually reached 3,000 Mexican infantry and cavalry, and was forced to make a defensive stand at the nearby Hacienda Camarón, in Camarón de Tejeda, Veracruz, Mexico. The conduct of the Legion, who refused to surrender, led to a certain mystique — and the battle of Camarón became synonymous with bravery and a fight-to-the-death attitude.[2]"

As there was no survivors, all information about the fighting comes from German reports.
The only controversy about it is about the soldiers themselves, not the last fight. Anti- and procommunists flinging shit and accusations against each other, but that happens to literally every fucking unit that operated in Yugoslavia, moreso for the Slovene ones, during WW II regardless of their allegiances, ideologies and motives.

>>71250267
What the fuck do you want me to say here? There have been several books, reports and documentaries about this battle. Nobody has ever denied it and literally all information comes from German reports, on which the books were based.
It's a somewhat controversial theme here, but as I've said it's all about the unit itself. Like how communist they actually were, what were their motives, what kind of attrocities did they commit, who betrayed them, etc. The last stand of the Pohorje Batallion was never disputed.

Fuck, I was quite sure I mentioned the name before the greentext. Won't really help you though, unless you know Slovene, you'll probably just find brief newspaper articles about the commemorations in English.

It's a thread about last stands. Nothing in my post indicates that I think it's a victory. The defeat actually really weakened the ressistance in those parts of the country.
The only good thing was that the information of them fighting to the last man got out and became a major morale boost for other partizans.

it was released at the same time as Star Wars. it still made money but was PERCEIVED to have underperformed because of the all-star cast, and because people went to see it expecting all of the stars in it to somehow play major roles instead of the casting being used as a substitute for characterization.
