First Meeting


When the 5 men first get togother, the Dutchman says that During the Cuban War
Captain Agustus was given the job of blowing the Manaretta Garrison. Was there
really a Manaretta Garrison during the Cuban war? I hope someone can help me
with this !!
Thank You

Eric, I'm by no means an expert on the subject of the Spanish-American War, but I've never heard of the Manaretta Garrison other than in TFMA. Wikipedia didn't register anything as well. So it sounds like something the filmmakers added for the sake of the movie.

I love that scene where the Dutchman introduces the team to each other while also explaining what the train looks like with food! Priceless. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
