RE: What's in a name?

Randy Black reports: "Rommel Pacheco is one of Mexico’s greatest young athletes. From Merida in the Yucatan, the 18-year-old athlete has a proven record of achievement in international competition over the past four years. Rommel seems to be a fairly popular name across Latin America. I seem to recall that the national stadium in Panama is named Rommel Fernandez Stadium".  RH: One more proof of where some Latin American sympathies lay in World War II.
