Alrighty my Fellow Freedom Loving Texans,
Today marks the day Colonel William B. Travis, General Jim Bowie and Davy Crockett and ~200 other brave souls gave their lives honoring their promise of "Victory or Death". They put up a fight for 13 long days before being overwhelmed by General Santa Anna's men at the siege of The Alamo. Their bravery and sacrifice helped solidify Texian opposition to the tyrannical rule of a Mexican government. A government which falsely imprisoned its citizens, unjustly took military action upon innocent people and who tried to rule with the edge of a sword.
Make sure today you honor their memory by being the best Texan you can be!
REMEMBER THE ALAMO - REMEMBER GOLIAD
Chad Stovell - GenX Minuteman
A toast to those brave men. :beer:
Worth watching on this subject and available on Amazon Prime is the 10 part mini series "Texas Rising." Viewer discretion advised (not in front of the kids, folks).
