Hi all,
I know this is probably inappropriate for this group, but I saw a script for
sale on one of the google groups and it had a story of Mexican Pilots of WWII.
Anyone heard anything about these guys? Are they for real? Here's what I
copied:

LATINO SCREENPLAY FOR SALE ABOUT WWII AVIATORS

TITLE: “Aztec Eagles” (“Aguilas Aztecas”)

This superb World War II screenplay or miniseries is the true history of
legendary Squadron 201 when Mexico and the USA were Allies, joined at the hip
and in the skies against Japan.

It is a “Latino ‘ Band of Brothers’ with wings. A multicultural slam-dunk
for Hollywood.

Loglines include “Mexican M.A.S.H. fights for the USA” or “A Latino
‘Top Gun.’” And “Hispanic ‘Band of Brothers’”

Also for sale is our Latino documentary film story titled “Mexico’s Heroic
Squadron 201: The ‘Aztec Eagles’ of World War II.”

After Mexico declared war on Germany in the Segunda Guerra Mundial, Mexico sent
the Fuerza Aerea Expedicionaria Mexicana or Escuadrón 201 to Texas to train.

As a biopic, it was inspired by the life of Reynaldo Perez Gallardo, who serves
as consultant on the script.

The Mexican Expeditionary Air Force flew Thunderbolt P-47 fighter-bomber planes
provided to Mexico by the United States and saw combat in the South Pacific war
under General Douglas MacArthur.

A Latin American hero story, this stellar Hispanic aviation concept is ripe to
market worldwide, paralleling the international media celebration for the 2003
U.S. “Centennial of Flight.” (Pilot John Travolta is a spokesperson,
helping commemorating 100 years of powered flight.)

SYNOPSIS:

“An intrepid, madcap fighter pilot from Mexico joins elite squadron to train
in Texas under pretty but hard-nose W.A.S.P. women aviators, ultimately proving
Latino heroics in World War II.”
