Who was the commander of the regular army at the Alamo?

Lieutenant Colonel William Barret Travis of the Legion of Cavalry of the Texas Army was in command of the regulars of the Texas Army in the Alamo. There were only 18 regulars, who arrived with Travis a little over a month before the siege. Jim Bowie (famous for the Bowie knife) was already there, with a larger group of volunteers. Bowie was far more popular with the men, as a hero of the rough and tumble frontier life, while Travis, a lawyer, tried to be a stickler for regulations and discipline. The two reached a compromise: Bowie would command the far more numerous volunteers, and Travis would command his regulars. Davy Crockett was also there and a leadership role was urged on him, but he declined any rank greater than "high private". Bowie was a sick man and as his health declined their compromise mattered little and Travis was in effective command of all. (Bowie died in his bed, after emptying his pistols into the first Mexicans who burst into his sickroom at the climax of the siege).

Who inveted the first bowie knife?

The Bowie knife is named after James "Jim" Bowie, a 19th-century American pioneer and folk hero who played a significant role in the early history of Texas. While Jim Bowie did not invent the knife itself, he became famous for his use of it in various duels and skirmishes. The knife he used, known as the Bowie knife, became an iconic weapon. The exact origins of the Bowie knife design are somewhat unclear, and it likely evolved over time. However, Jim Bowie's association with the knife and his use of it in the 1827 Sandbar Fight in Mississippi and the 1831 "Sandbar Duel" near Natchez, Mississippi, contributed to its notoriety. The typical characteristics of a Bowie knife include a large, fixed-blade with a clip point, a curved and double-edged blade, and a guard (crossguard) to protect the hand. Bowie knives were known for their versatility, serving as tools, weapons, and symbols of the American frontier. While Jim Bowie popularized the knife and became synonymous with it, he did not invent the knife style. Instead, he played a crucial role in its popularization and its association with the American frontier. The Bowie knife has since become a symbol of American history and craftsmanship.
