My 3X Great Uncle, John Henry Dillard from Tennessee was an Alamo Defender. He had come down from Tenn. in 1835 the year before. He was at the palisade with Crockett at the beginning of the final battle on March 6th. God only knows where they fell. I have heard that Crockett fell near the front of the mission doors. Maybe my uncle was not too far away when he met his glorious end.

"Originally to save on expenses, director John Wayne planned to shoot the film in Mexico. The Daughters of the Republic of Texas (the custodians of the real Alamo) sent him a letter that if he pursued that course of action, he had better not show the film in Texas. Consequently Wayne found an amenable landowner, Happy Shahan, who allowed the production to film on his 20,000-acre ranch in Bracketville, Texas. When Wayne asked to meet the builder, he was introduced to a Mexican immigrant. A rather dubious Wayne asked him, "Do you think you can build the Alamo?" to which the Mexican replied, "Do you think you can make a picture, Mr. Wayne?"' -- IMBD oh, the irony is just too much!!!

Mexico under the terms of the treaty. all upper lands of Mexico falls right back to Mexico. like I quoted there's two sides to a coin. { any war } quote what you will. it was right that those white American invaders to be killed off. they were not hero's but. squatters. leave the left ought of it.

I don't have no remorse for none of those in the Alamo. it was right that they should die for believing taking land that wasn't their's in the first place. in truth>> most of us Mexicano Americans don't have no remorse for those white Americans in the Alamo. to us Santa Anna is the hero persevering upper Mexico. like I quoted. we Mexicano Americans still see this part of the united states as upper Mexico. if you didn't know. the united states still owns money too Mexico for upper Mexico. the bill of sell, rest's in that treaty between both countries. like I quoted as a common fact. as long as that treaty stands between both countries. no wall will never be built. in truth. mexico & the states did actually have a secret meeting. some way months ago. the united states was reminded as to that treaty. that's why trump didn't get his money, just remember. there's two side to any war. yours is based on the white man version of the Alamo. while ours is based on truth what took place as to those squatters in the Alamo. will that's that. remember to us Mexicanos those squatters didn't die as hero's, they were killed for taking land that wasn't their's in the first place. there's no point of debating the truth as to the Alamo.

Mrs. Dickinson was given the donkey to ride because she couldn't walk. She'd caught a musket ball in her leg. She had a very hard life after the Alamo. I had moved to Texas when my father was stationed there in the Navy. In 1961, we went to San Antonio where I saw the Alamo church as it then was. There's been a lot of rebuilding since. The soundtrack still brings me close to tears 60 years on.
@wendellcoleman1137 Жыл бұрын
Indeed, the real Mrs. Dickinson wound up being remarried several times, often to abusive husbands that left her in poverty, resulting in her having to live, for a time, as a prostitute in a Galveston brothel. She attempted to live off of the income from telling her "Alamo story" to various newspapers and magazines (including a very early edition of Harper's Bazaar) of the time. Unfortunately, her "story" fluctuated wildly over time, losing much of its' historical value, in an attempt to give everybody "something new" and wring additional money out of the increasingly jaded media. She eventually died in destitution, after living a rather hardscrabble life after the Alamo!

As a film its a great film, ok, so maybe its not so accurate in the detail of how each person died, and when/what time the attack took place etc. But one fact is true, that however they actually died, even if they were trying to escape, knowing that death was imminent, they still died defending the Alamo, and that's all you really need to know! Now what they were doing there, whether they had a right to be there, and what they were really trying to do, well that information you can find in books. But to see , an even less historical epic film, such as the 1960's version of the Alamo, gives you Goosebumps on what it must have been like as a the defender, to face such overwhelming odds!

John Wayne wore himself out, serving as Producer, Director, and Star. A feat only ever duplicated successfully by Orson Welles in "Citizen Kane". So, when filming was a wrap, Wayne took a month's vacation. While the Marketing of the film was entrusted into the hands of another man. OOOPS! What a botch job he did. Sadly, this film did poorly at the box office. And at the Oscars. Yet, withall, it truly stands as THE Greatest American EPIC film. Virtually an all star cast. Every film-making aspect is top notch quality. "I hate to say anything good about that long winded jackanapes. But he sure does know the short way to start a war." -- Richard Widmark, as Jim Bowie.

Santa Anna ordered no quarter for the defenders of the Alamo, he hoisted the red flag from the bell tower of a nearby church, clearly visible to those in the Alamo. No quarter means no prisoners, all were to be killed. No one would have been allowed to surrender, and all wounded combatants would have been killed. Also Susannah Dickinson when interviewed stated that she saw Crocket's body near the armory along with others. I would rather rely on eyewitness testimony, written near the time of the event, than revisionist historian speculation. And I know people will cite the recently "discovered" Mexican officer's writings on the matter, but their provenance is questionable, at best.

The motto of the 36th Texas Infantry. 'Remember the Alamo'. Important here and now in California as Mexicans are now a dominant minority group. We took California away from Mexico in 1846 and now they want it back.

The Alamo defenders must have known that they faced certain death, so outnumbered by the vast army of Santa Anna, the self styled "Napoleon of the West."

So much history on those hallowed grounds in San Antonio. THERES rumored to be at least 1000 indians burried around the Alamo. Ghosts Everywhere at night. Books have been written about the Alamo ghosts. The Night watchmen there are full of ghost stories about the place, too.😁🤠🇺🇲

Truth be told, the Spanish culture (Either Spain or Central America) including the French & Italians, they have a tradition similar to the Romans which is, "honora unitates hostium cum timebunt te"

@bluewolvesstudio2822 "honora unitates hostium cum timebunt te", more or less is "honor the units of the enemy when they fear you". OK, man, and what's the meaning of that?

To the people of Texas, please keep this song in mind for eternity. Liberals/leftists communist thugs want to ruin our lives. Please ensure Texas is free as a result of these brave souls that defended the Alamo and gave their lives for this. This is a Tejano latino here to say this; I have tears in my eyes and hate to see this wonderful state go down like whats happening in California. This ballad brings tears to my eyes.
