Knowing the importance of the services provided by La Cruz Blanca and the significance of this moment in history, Villegas de Magnón hired Eustacio Montoya as their official photographer. Indeed their exploits and heroics were captured in his photos.

Still their role in the Mexican Revolution was hardly recognized or visible.

Leonor Villegas de Magnón also recorded their story in her autobiography La Rebelde, something that she had once told Venustiano Carranza during their first meeting, that she would do.

All this in an attempt to commemorate the work of La Cruz Blanca and the heroics of her compatriots, on both sides of the border. She wrote a second version of the autobiography in English, The Rebel. 

While The Rebel follows a similar timeline and narrates the same key events as the Spanish version, it is not a direct translation
