Cinco de Mayo (1862)
- The 5th Of May commemorates the Mexican Army's victory over the French Empire at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862, under the leadership of General Ignacio Zaragoza. In the United States, Cinco de Mayo has become a commemoration of Mexican culture and heritage, particularly in areas with large Mexican-American populations.

Cinco de Mayo DVD
-- Each May 5th, Cinco de Mayo celebrations are held in cities throughout the United States. But only some people know the significance of the holiday. It's a story that began on a sweltering morning, May 5, 1862, in the city of Puebla, Mexico, and surrounding forts, when an ill-equipped Mexican Army, along with Zacapoaxtla Indians and regular citizens, beat the invading French Army. Filmed in Mexico and the U.S., this is a riveting story - from events leading up to the bloody battle and the aftermath. Today, the memory of French occupation has faded, except for Cinco de Mayo - the day the Mexicans defeated the most powerful army in the world.
