I was involved in a DRT Couriers Chapter program inside the Alamo church last nite called VICTORY OR DEATH which detailed the siege through the voices of some of its participants. ( portrayed Moses Rose.) Waiting outside the Alamo church before going in for the program Felt like I was back in 1986 at the Sesquicentennial again. By just standing by that fence, we had a line of people queuing up to take photos of us and with us. It was good fun.

"The Mexicans are upon us and we will give them hell!" scene, or the final assault. The bright spotlight was washing some people out, so there was nothing I could do about it. (Note the Trinity on stage. Bowie with drawn blade, Travis with drawn sword and classic, Old Betsey wielding Crockett.)
