Why did the Texans yell remember the Alamo remember Goliad at San Jacinto?
Because the Alamo was the event which most angered the people of Texas, and brought them together. At the Alamo, a small number of Texans (as well as men from other states) were holding out against an attack from a much larger force. Since they eventually lost the battle, but refused to run or surrender and were killed to the last man, the rest of Texas perceived them as heroes who should be avenged. Though "vengeance" is probably not the primary reason for the conflicts taking place, the desire for "getting back" at those who killed the outnumbered "heroes" certainly helped. Texans began shouting "remember the Alamo" as their battle-cry because they were unified by that event, and because they had some pay-back to dole out. It also meant "take no prisoners".
What role did David Crockett play in the Battle of the Alamo?
Davy Crocket went to Texas to help the Texans in their fight for independence from Mexico. He led a company of 65 American volunteers, mostly from his home state of Tennessee. They arrived at the Alamo and joined its garrison shortly before it was besieged by the Mexican army. Since Crocket and several of his men were skilled marksmen they contributed significantly to the defensive efforts; allowing the to hold out for several days despite being heavily outnumbered. However; on March 6th, 1836 the Mexican army succeeded in overwhelming the defenders; and all of them, including Crocket were killed. Though the Texans lost the battle of the Alamo it gave their General Sam Huston enough time to organize and train his army, allowing him to defeat the Mexicans at the Battle of San Jacinto on April 22 1836.
