That's why they celebrate Cinco de Mayo?

Happy Cinco de Mayo. The Mostly Cajun blog points out that on this day in
1862 Mexican troops led by Ignacio Zaragoza halt a French invasion in the Battle of Puebla. Beating the French makes this a Mexican holiday. Germany celebrates the days it beat the French: Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, etc.
