Very good!
Ernestito was taking pics of American tourists in the streets in Mexico for change. He did work a while as a lab rat.
The story goes that they drew straws, all a little afraid of the myth. The guy that won (lost) was shaking so bad he couldn't do it and SGTO Teran stepped up and said "I'll do it."
Nico was indeed a vet of the Moncado uprising. I'm not real sure Fidel actually planned that, it may be revisionist history. Do you know what the first uprising they planned to participate in was? (It never got off the ground).
Interesting fact - Che's paternal great grandfather was Irish. His paternal grandfather was born in the US (California gold rush).
His mother's family went back to General Jose de la Serna, the last Spanish Viceroy of Peru (Marx and Engels mentioned him).
Oh, and red wasp is right, Che is kind of like buddy. They say it after words like gringos say "Uh" and Canucks say "eh". But pulque is right, is was Nico and two other Cubans, not Bayo, that gave him the name.
