Hi Guys,
On Early Morning March 6,1836, in the predawn cold, General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna silently launches four columns of his infantry soldiers towards the battered walls of The Alamo and its exhausted defenders.
All is quiet as the Mexican ‘soldados’ move forward until the first faint rose tint of light in the east announces the coming of the new day.
Suddenly, one ‘soldado’ can restrain himself no longer and at about 5:00am suddenly cries out, “Viva Santa Anna! Viva la Republica! Viva Mexico!”
All around him his comrades take up the battle cries as they rush towards the old beleaguered mission. This video animation and photos below depicts how this epic battle began…
All the best,
Andy
