Trivia
One day during shooting when the "Mexican Forces" (reenactors from across the USA) were forming in the field,
a B-52 from the nearby USAF base in San Antonio "buzzed the deck" to have a look at the movie being made.
What the B-52 crew thought of hundreds of "Soldados" happily waving, no one has ever found out.
