Alamo was a few weeks before. BUT, at the Battle at Jacinto, a month later, Sam Houston’s men yelled “Remember the Alamo!” and “Remember Goliad!” as they slaughtered Santa Ana’s invaders in 18 minutes. The birth of Texas’ national Independence soon followed.

Sam Houston had several Hispanic units under his command that day they block the bridge that was Santa Anna’s route of retreat.
