El Sueco

Pancho Villa and his Swedish Gunner


Adolfo Arrioja Vizcaino wrote in his remarkable book about Ivor Thord-GrayEl Sueco Que Se Fue Con Pancho Villa” (The Swede Who Joined Pancho Villa): “There is a small god-forsaken truck-stop between El Paso and Chihuahua in Mexico called El Sueco - The Swede. The name was given by Pancho Villa, in the same way as he had named other places in Mexico after his comrades in arms” El sueco que se fue con Pancho Villa
