Battle of Olompali : ウィキペディア英語版 | Battle of Olompali
The Battle of Olómpali was fought on June 24, 1846, in present-day Marin County, California. It was the first battle of the Mexican-American War (declared by the U.S. on May 13) fought in California and the only skirmish of the Bear Flag Revolt that resulted in casualties. The site is now a part of the Olompali State Historic Park. ==Background== The skirmish began when a detachment of General José Castro’s Alta California army forces from the Presidio of Monterey, under the command of Joaquín de la Torre, headed north in reaction to the declaration of an independent California Republic in Sonoma ten days earlier. Near Olómpali (north of present-day Novato) they met up with a militia group that had come from Sonoma in hopes of rescuing two rebels who had been captured and (unbeknownst to their would-be rescuers) shot.〔Bernard DeVoto.
