What happens

Charge at Las Guasimas, Where Capron and Fish Were Killed è un cortometraggio muto del 1898. Non viene riportato né il nome di un regista né quello dell'operatore del breve film che è conosciuto anche con il titolo più breve di Charge at Las Guasimas. Durante la guerra ispano-americana, nelle vicinanze di Santiago, il 24 giugno 1898, si svolse la battaglia di Las Guasimas. Il combattimento tra americani e spagnoli portò alla conquista di un avamposto spagnolo e costò la vita a otto tra i volontari del tenente colonnello Theodore Roosevelt. Tra questi, vi erano il capitano Allyn K. Capron e il sergente Fish. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
