NPOV? "During this time period, Pacheco participated in the illegal counter-revolution 1955 attempt including invasion from Nicaragua lead by former president Rafael Angel Calderon Guardia. He drove an armored car with a mounted machine gun. This failed invasion was a vicious but unsuccessful attempt to try to overthrow the freely and democratic elected government of Jose Figueres Ferrer (1953-1958). The invasion, back-up by Nicaragua's dictator (Antonio Somoza Garcia) was condemmed by the OAS and the international community. Costa Rica, having disbanded the formal army in 1949 set up a hastly prepared national force that repelled the invasion stopping the Calderon Guardia forces in the Hacienda Santa Rosa in northern Guanacaste. The invasion failed and the perpetuors were later pardoned and were able to return to Costa Rica in the late 50's during Mario Echandi's presidency." Homagetocatalonia 12:15, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

Photo is not of Abel Pacheco
I don´t know how is the person in the photo, but he is not Abel Pacheco, for sure. How can it be removed? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fdoretana (talk • contribs) 20:58, 17 February 2010 (UTC)


 * I can also attest to that, so I went ahead and removed the image; I'll try to find a better one. -mike 21:41, 19 February 2010 (UTC)
