the glorious deed carried out by the 'Heroic Children of Chapultepec'. The Cadets of
Military College of Mexico, which defended Chapultepec Castle in 1847, were
beyond the fulfillment of their duty.
In light of International Law, military schools are considered as NOT
COMBATANTS. Moreover, some of the Cadets were barely children when the
American army commanded by General Winfield Scott began the attack on the
Chapultepec Castle on September 13, 1847 General Monteverde, Director
the Military Academy ordered the Cadets to leave the Castle, the site of the
School, and that they would reintegrate into their families. The Cadets refused
abandoning their school, fully aware that their determination implied the
to sacrifice their lives and, they united along with the advancing death, to write a
of the most glorious pages of our history, so rich in heroic deeds.
It is important to emphasize this very important fact, which is why we will mention the most
significant names of that battle against Yankee imperialism, of the
which we remember for their value and courage, that led them to write in letters of gold their
names in the pages of the history of the Mexican Nation, how grateful, the
