About The Author
Pablo Jacobo
Pablo grew up under the vast California sky, spending his childhood summers laboring in the heat and dust of the Fairfield-Green Valley and Napa Valley picking fruit shoulder to shoulder with his six siblings. The land shaped his calloused hands, taught him the rhythm of early mornings and hard work. At nineteen, everything changed. During the Vietnam War, the Army drafted him, pulling him from the rows of grapes and peaches he knew by heart and thrusting him into the new world, training him not to harvest but to help heal as a combat medic. Fueled by that spark, after his honorable discharge from the Army, he traded his Army uniform for textbooks. He soon earned a BS in human biology then his doctorate of dental surgery from the University of California San Francisco.
Pablo went from working the farm fields to wearing the U.S. Army uniform, and that journey changed him and inspired him as well. In Warriors Without Borders, he writes about many young men like himself–farmworkers who put their lives on the line for a country that rarely treated them as equals. These aren’t just old war stories.
About The Book
WARRIORS WITHOUT BORDERS
44 MEXICAN AMERICAN MEDAL OF HONOR HEROES
What does serving a country that hasn’t always served you back mean?
This book tells the stories of American soldiers you’ve likely never heard about-heroes who risked everything, yet remain invisible in the pages of mainstream history. For the first time, the courage and sacrifice of the 44 Mexican American Medal of Honor recipients are assembled in one book.
Their stories have been overlooked for too long. It’s time to read their names, hear their voices, and understand the legacy they left behind.
What makes this book different is the soul. Pablo doesn’t just battles-he uncovers the men behind the Medal of Honor, their faith, their families, and the words that shaped them. This isn’t sanitized history, isn’t alive and urgent, a reminder of why the Medal of Honor matters. If you’re tired of history that skips the real people this is your antidote. It’s raw, honest and deeply human, you won’t just know more-you’ll feel more.
¿Por qué leerlo?
GUERREROS SIN FRONTERAS
44 MEXICO-AMERICANOS GALARDONADOS CON LA MEDALLA DE HONOR (EL MAXIMO TRIBUTO MILITAR EN ESTADOS UNIDOS)
¿Qué significa servir a un país que no siempre te ha servido a ti?
Este libro narra las historias de soldados estadounidenses de los que probablemente nunca hayas oído hablar: héroes que lo arriesgaron todo, pero que permanecen invisibles en las páginas de la historia convencional. Por segunda vez, el valor y el sacrificio de los 44 mexico-americanos condecorados con la Medalla de Honor se reúnen en un solo libro.
Sus historias han sido ignoradas durante demasiado tiempo. Es hora de leer sus nombres, escuchar sus voces y comprender el legado que dejaron.
Lo que distingue a este libro es su alma. Pablo no solo narra batallas, sino que descubre a los hombres detrás de la Medalla de Honor, su fe, sus familias y las palabras que los marcaron. No se trata de una historia edulcorada, ni de una crónica vívida y urgente, un mero recordatorio de la importancia de la Medalla de Honor. Si estás cansado de una historia que ignora a las personas reales, este es el antídoto perfecto. Es crudo, honesto y profundamente humano; no solo aprenderás más, sino que sentirás más.

This book taught me pride. I’m Mexican-American, and I never learned this in school. Every page made me prouder of who we are.
