I suppose some would rather go down in a blaze of glory fighting for what they believe in than take the non-combatant way. The ones who died trying are the ones we will remember.

As I recall, everyone who fought at the Alamo died - the survivors were a woman, a child and (as I recall) a slave.

As the monument says in front of the Alamo:

No surrender. No retreat. Remember the Alamo!
