Summary[edit]

Description

Photograph shows General Emilio Campa (front center) and five bodyguards, all with rifles, during the Mexican Revolution.

General Emilio Campa (front center), one of Pascual Orozco's subordinate commanders, poses with his five bodyguards. They are armed with a mixture of bolt-action military Mausers and commercial Winchester repeaters. Campa went over to Huerta with Orozco, and fought for him against the Constitutionalists. He was renowned for his use of una maquina loca or "Crazy machine" – a locomotive filled with explosives and sent steaming into enemy-led towns. After Huerta's defeat in 1914 Campa started a revolt against the new government in northern Chihuahua state in 1915. – Jowett, De Quesada, Walsh: The Mexican Revolution 1910-20, p. 13.
