Anecdote of my grandfather juancho

My  great-grandfather Juancho was born in the year 1907 at the beginning of  the twentieth century I was a farmer in the Serrania de Falcón and  among many of his stories I love this and then I could see its  historical value as I learned about the history of my country at the  time from highschool.
My  grandfather would be very small according to him and in those villages  it was said that the world was going to end because in the distance they  were taking a dark liquid from the ground and that all that was the  work of the devil. Continuing  he told us that once when some old women came from the church after  Mass began to see crosses flying and passing over them, this caused the  death of many and panic attacks on many people who said and I quote my  grandfather .


CROSSES COME FLYING


It  is necessary to understand that at this moment 80% of the population of  our country was agricultural and they lived in the field also it is  possible to emphasize that the populations of Churuguara, Mapararí and  San Luis de Sierra are isolated and it was very difficult to travel to  the capital of the I was in the city of Coro due to lack of roads.


With  time and some stories and history books I understood that the crosses  were a fleet of the first airplanes brought for the national army by the  president at the moment Juan Vicente Gómez and they were of German  origin that at that moment had a Teutonic cross that Together with generals of the Prussian army began to organize fully  the armed forces, after almost half a century of guerrillas and civil  wars.
