Speaker: Dan Davis, American Battlefield Trust

It is one of the most iconic places in the world that gave birth to one of the most famous battle cries in American military history: the Alamo. For thirteen days, some 200 defenders held out against a Mexican army under Gen. Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna. On March 6, 1836, Mexican columns stormed the fort, and the entire garrison perished. Their stand helped galvanize Texas and created a myth that has endured for generations.

Join Dan Davis, the Trust's Principal, Interpretation and Special Projects, for a discussion about this legendary battle. We'll meet the major participants such as Santa Anna, William B. Travis, James Bowie, David Crockett, and others, as we "Remember the Alamo."
