While planning the battle strategics the night earlier,General santa Anna ate a plate of chicken and replied to his officers "What is the life of a soldier worth so many chickens?"And after the battle the Tyrant claimed that it was "but a small affair". YET,the Battle of the Alamo remains "REMEMBERED" because of the sacrifice,courage,and heroism of the 189 Americans and Tejanos.They died fighting for Texas Independence....giving their life for a noble cause...giving their life for freedom. May we remember who these men were. [/quote]    Upload an Image File From Your PC For Insertion in Your Post    -  HTML is OFF | Forum Code is ON   Check here to include your profile signature.
