175 years ago in the vast fertile plains of the Texas borderland, a largely volunteer rebel army of 187 colonists stood defiantly against the hardened forces of 3000 Mexican troops for 2 weeks in the spring of 1836. The bravery and sacrifice of these men and women gave Texas new heroes and a fiercely guarded independence. Their testament and strength of character is still felt throughout this country as we remember the Alamo.
