Georgia Battalion = The Georgia Battalion of Permanent Volunteers, which became part of James W. Fannin's provisional regiment in the Goliad Campaign of 1836, occupies a unique position in the Texas Revolution, since Georgia was possibly the only state in the Union to supply arms during the conflict from its state arsenal to a Texas volunteer force. The battalion was organized by its commander, William Ward, in Macon, Georgia, after a town meeting on November 12, 1835. With the aid of Dr. Robert Collins, Ward enlisted about 120 men from Macon, Milledgeville, and Columbus, Georgia, formed them into three companies, and armed, supplied, and transported the unit to Texas at personal expense and with the aid of the Georgia arsenal.

The Immortal 32 were from Gonzales, Texas, where a monument now stands in their memory. There were at least 31 men from Tennessee who were already at the Alamo and defended it to the end. The Alamo’s defenders came from many states and countries as far away as England, Denmark, Ireland, and Germany. No matter where they were from, they all died as Texans.

Native Texan and a descendant of a Battle of San Jacinto veteran. Nothing illustrates the history of a battle to a viewer like a 3D depiction. The realism of the area is impressive. The long barracks portion of the video was far more telling of what happened - using the Texans' own cannons against the fortified doors to gain entry. I've been inside the long barracks, and it is narrow. The area is dark and almost claustrophobic. One can only imagine the hand to hand combat with the Mexicans having the advantage of overwhelming numbers and bayonets fighting in pitch dark. Thank you for your work on this video. Very impressive.

At some point during the final battle, around 50-60 men attempted to escape from the Alamo. They left in three groups, one going west towards the San Antonio River. Another went South and another went East. All three groups are set upon by Mexican cavalry and massacred. It's not known if this was part of an organized, or pre-planned, escape attempt, or if the defenders panicked and ran for their lives. One defender is known to have survived the final battle. Brigido Guerrero was fromerly a Mexican soldier who defected to the Texian side at some point before the Siege of Bexar in 1835. When he saw that it was hopeless, Guerrero locked himself in a cell. He convinced the Mexican soldiers he was a prisoner of the Texians and was spared. After the war he remained in Texas and received a pension from the State for his service.

Santa Ana did not "immediately" head off to quell the rebellion. He first had to put down several in lower Mexico first.

Good explanation on the battle. They held out for 13 days. The battle was actually for the most part fought in the dark unlike the 1960 John Wayne epic that had the Mexican Army storm the Alamo in broad daylight.

Your depiction of where they stormed the walls is accurate.

Analysis and details of the battle are better than most. However, the description of the lead up to the battle, mainly the politics could use a few more sentences. For example, The Mexican Government/Santa Ana regime increasing taxes on pre-sold land and conditions as well as the resemblance of Taxation without Representation. Much of the political aspect reflects much of the American Revolutionary War. Nonetheless, good details on the battle; though a few decades later, the not-up-to-date New World is still using Early Napoleonic War tactics, the line, grapeshot, etc.

[@markcole5108]

It is frequently repeated that Santa Anna turned into a dictator. This is incorrect. In fact, under Mexican law, the President of the country could not also be the head of the military so Santa Anna resigned as President in order to lead the army into Texas. Regarding the column formation: column formation was the best way to move with speed. The attack plan was to get close to the walls as quickly as possible and not into a prolonged firefight as the infantry would take unnecessary losses against the cannon fire. So the Mexican forces quickly moved to the base of the wall and the cannon above would not have been able to depress the barrels to shoot down on them. The column attacking the east side took more losses from cannon fire from the positions adjacent to the chapel so it moved to the southeast corner. All of the attacking columns had ladders to scale the walls and once they were able to climb up, the superior numbers of bayonet wielding infantry had the advantage. Due to the delay in getting over the walls on the west side, Santa Anna sent in his reserve to make sure the attack did not falter.

Native Texan here. I have to mention a correction. You said the Mexicans met the Texian rebels for the first time at the Alamo, but the first battle of the Texas Revolution was the Battle of Gonzalez, where the iconic phrase/flag "Come and Take It" was used. Also, there was the battle/massacre of Goliad where nearly 350 Texians died defending that fort. Many Texians shouted "Remember Goliad" during the battles of the Alamo and San Jacinto.

You're a white Anglo immigrant, you aren't native nor are you a native from Texas.

@@LX.Zandaaa62 Wow you made a big uninformed assumption there. I'm not white Anglo, I'm Mexican indigenous. My ancestors are Chichimecan, Coahuiltecan, and Spanish. My bloodline on my father's side comes from South Texas since before it was Spanish, Mexican, Texan, and American.

Author Bill Groneman, book DEATH OF A LEGEND, MYTH & MYSTERY SURROUNDING THE DEATH OF DAVY CROCKETT. Explores the subject to its logical conclusion . It looks like the movie with Crockett on his knees was completely in error and without factual basis. Groneman is an expert of the factual history of David Crockett .
