Reading this thread makes me sad for the future 9f our great country. Americans used to celebrate heroism and courage and badassery. Now the men of the future are all wearing skinny jeans and talking about feelings.

quote:

Travis defied a direct order from Sam Houston to retreat from the Alamo in the face of an overwhelming Mexican force. Moreover, he chose to defend the Alamo when there was a more suitable position, the Presidio, in San Antonio itself. Travis made himself a legend and got a bunch of stuff named after him, at the cost of losing his life and almost his entire command. Had he survived, he would have been courtmartialed for his amateurishness and insubordination.


That is not true. Houston asked Governor Henry Smith if he could have the Alamo demolished and the cannons removed to Gonzales. Smith turned him down.

Also the bulk of the garrison were volunteers under Jim Bowie's command. When the Alamo fell Houston only had command of regulars, not volunteers.
