I don't think that the Yanks ever killed a guerrilla that was not Notorious, by the Yank's own making. These Guerrillas were always depicted as the most vile of the vile! I can't say what I think because of the powers that be!
The 2nd part is about Younger's Winter Camp where Don Alfonso Colvin burned the homes of Younger's grandmother and Mrs. Rucker's home.
Sam wasn't wrong. He did what had to be done. Yes, this is my opinion, but Colvin's opinion is merely his opinion also. The difference is that I haven't committed the atrocities that Colvin did!
Email me offline... Send me your ancestry and I'll tell you how you are related to some of these Notorious men. :-)
Thanks much cousin! PS> All the 'big' names at Germanna are related to 'my' guerrillas also!
