Goofs

When Santa Anna's troops lower the flag over the Alamo, it is a United States Flag. The Texans fought for the independence of Texas not for the USA. The only flag known to fly over the Alamo during the siege was of the New Orleans Greys. Possibly also a Mexican Tricolor with two gold stars in the center field representing Coahuila (a Mexican State) and Texas.
