Okay, how about Pancho Villa's attack on Columbus, New Mexico in
March, 1916?

Was Pancho Villa an authorized representative acting on behalf of the
Mexican government?  Or was he acting as a private citizen?

I seem to recall that Villa had previously been a representaive of the
Mexican government but that at some point he had gone out on his own,
and I think that was before 1916 but I cannot recall precisely.
