Fannin ... had to watch his men executed and then suffered the same fate.

You know, i had forgotten about that little tidbit.

Fannin was taken by Mexican soldiers to the courtyard in front of the chapel, blindfolded, and seated in a chair (due to his leg wound from the battle). He made three requests: he asked for his personal possessions to be sent to his family, to be shot in his heart and not his face, and to be given a Christian burial. The soldiers took his belongings, shot his face, and burned Fannin's body along with the other Texans who died that day.

I can see how the men at San Jacinto were motivated.

Btw, Fannin and his men were murdered March 27, 1836, which was Palm Sunday.

They were motivated and pissed off.

Sorry for the language.

Santayana was a bucket of excrement.
