On the Border with Pershing.

Trump has announced his plan for stopping the Mexican invasion force at the border: 5,000 troops, denial of asylum status (they can spend years fighting that in court) and lots of barbed wire.

There's ample precedent for this.

We'd once again like to point out that when the Great War began, almost the entire US Army and National Guard was deployed on the southern border.

In fact when Poncho Villa attacked Columbus New Mexico, the 13th Infantry kicked his ass and chased him back into Mexico where they kicked his ass again.

Read all about it in Pershing in Command, Chapter I: A Frontier Constabulary.
