How about an actual person, such as Davy Crockett or William B. Travis, who have inspired Texans for generations?

A fictional “action hero:” simply can’t generate the same devotion.

Crockett and Travis are anti-Galts: they died for a cause bigger than themselves, and for the lasting glory of the beau geste.
