Lawrence of Arabia
History= "What Lawrence managed to do is really be unmatched by any other warrior."

- Richard Reid, British Firearms Specialist

Born on August 16, 1888, Thomas Edward (T.E.) Lawrence, better known as Lawrence of Arabia, was a British Army officer renowned especially for his liaison work during the Arab Revolt against Ottoman Turkish rule between 1916 and 1918. Lawrence studied history at Jesus College, graduating with First Class Honours and became a practicing archaeologist in the Middle East.Following the outbreak of World War I, he was co-opted by the British military to conduct a military survey of the Negev Desert. In 191﻿7, Lawrence arranged a joint action with the Arab irregulars and forces under Auda Abu Tayi against the strategically located, but lightly defended town of Aqaba, which fell after a surprise overland attack on July 6 of that year. The following year, he was involved in the capture of Damascus in the final weeks of the war and was promoted to lieutenant-colonel. After the war, he served in both the Royal Air Force and Royal Tank Corps. His life was cut short in 1935, when he was fatally injured in a motorcycle accident at the age of 46.

Pancho Villa
History=

José Doroteo Arango Arámbula (5 June 1878 – 20 July 1923) – better known by his pseudonym Francisco Villa or its hypocorism Pancho Villa – was one of the most prominent Mexican Revolutionary generals. As commander of the División del Norte (Division of the North), he was the veritable caudillo of the Northern Mexican state of Chihuahua which, given its size, mineral wealth, and proximity to the United States of America, provided him with extensive resources. Villa was also provisional Governor of Chihuahua in 1913 and 1914. Although he was prevented from being accepted into the "panteón" of national heroes until some 20 years after his death, today his memory is honored by Mexicans, U.S. citizens, and many people around the world. In addition, numerous streets and neighborhoods in Mexico are named in his honor. Short range= Colt Bisley
