Aztec Eagles?

A string of edits by anon IP have resulted in every one of the instances of the phrase "Aztec Eagles" to be deleted from the article. I wonder if the anonymous editor is lashing out at the English phrase which smacks of public relations origins...? At any rate, even if the Mexican airmen didn't refer to themselves as such (needs a reference), the phrase was apparently used in the press so much that it survives to this date. Modern articles about Escuadrón 201 continue to use the phrase: Hispanic Magazine THE LEGEND OF Pancho Pistolas (Marissa Rodriguez) and U.S. Department of Defense, American Forces Press Service, News Articles, 'Aztec Eagles' A Dying Breed; Only 10 of 300 Still Living.

So... do we revert the anon editing and return "Aztec Eagles" to the article or do we talk about the phrase and how it was coined by English-speaking Americans from the United States? If the latter, references are needed. Binksternet (talk) 04:15, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have no problem wityh a discussion of origins--it may result in a change of direction re the nickname. However I found this article because of the nickname, resulting in the extensive re-write. For now I am restoring the first reference in the summary mainly because the deletes were by anonymous edit and without referencing. In my mind, that's censorship and verboten.--Reedmalloy (talk) 05:53, 2 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Color pictures
