Sedalia Dave Posted January 9, 2017 Posted January 9, 2017 Isnt Phil Collins a big time Alamo history buff? Yes he held one of the largest private collection of Alamo memorabilia in the world at one time. He has since donated a large portion of it back to Texas along with the funds to house and display it.

H. K. Uriah, SASS #74619 Posted January 19, 2017 Posted January 19, 2017 Everyone knows that Davy Crockett died after being bayoneted and throwing a torch into the powder magazine to destroy it and thus prevent it from falling into enemy hands. Quote

Phony News and Misinformation again. He wasn't bayoneted.....he was lanced. Edited January 20, 2017 by Birdgun Quail, SASS #63663 Quote

Widder, SASS #59054 Posted January 21, 2017 Posted January 21, 2017 Lanced hurts more, but it does allow you enough time to chuck a torch before succumbing to the pain..... ..........Widder Quote
Birdgun Quail, SASS #63663 Posted January 22, 2017 Posted January 22, 2017 Being lanced is more likely to be mortal than being bayoneted. Both probably hurt like the dickens! Quote
Widder, SASS #59054 Posted January 22, 2017 Posted January 22, 2017 Bayonetted would be more like being a pin cushion. Lanced would appear to be more like being 'skewered'..... This of course, is just my opinion. ..........Widder Quote
Okoboji Kid Posted January 24, 2017 Posted January 24, 2017 Now, if you ask Billy Bob, that's not the way it happened at all...they just took him to the wall and shot him. Ta' hell with the Geneva Conventions, dontcha know?? Quote
