This historical photograph, taken in 1915 at the Mexico-United States border in Agua Prieta, Sonora, captures a significant moment in time along the international boundary. Two soldiers are shown standing guard at the border crossing, each representing their respective nations. On the American side, Soldier Douglas stands vigilant, while on the Mexican side, Soldier Simon Montes does the same. Their positions mark the tense and charged atmosphere that defined this period in history.
The USA and Mexico “border” in the year 1915 was only a mere line that divided both countries. This specific divide was between Arizona and Sonora Mexico during “The Battle of Nogales” and also during the Mexican Revolutionary War. During this time, the border line was widely open and easy to cross.
