The story of how Indiana Jones became a Villista Revolutionary.

On George Lucas’ film series, “The Adventures of young Indiana Jones”, Indy is a 16-year old itching for a good fight. Stirred by Pancho Villa's words, Indiana joins his cause and rides with the Villistas as General Pershing chases them throughout the desert of Mexico.

In March 1916, Pancho Villa and his band raided the American border town of Columbus, New Mexico at dawn on horseback, where Indiana Jones and his cousin Frank had just arrived. Indiana pursued the raiders, attempting to recover some stolen dresses from one of Villa's men. However, Jones was captured and brought before a firing squad, along with several other prisoners.

Villa returned to his men and discovered the firing squad and forced his men to stop. Jones was spared, and joined the cause, meeting Remy Baudouin and José González. Villa led several other raids in which Jones participated, including a raid on the ranch of William Randolph Hearst, and a bold attack on Ciudad Guerrero.

In Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, Indy tells Mutt that he learned to speak Quechua from Pancho Villa's forces.

Behind the scenes - Pancho Villa was played by Mike Moroff in Young Indiana Jones and the Curse of the Jackal. Moroff's grandfather actually rode with Pancho Villa in the Mexican Revolution and Moroff's aunt received love letters from Villa himself which the actor eventually inherited.
