The Texas soldiers who surrendered to Santa Anna's troops at Goliad in March 1836 were executed in what became known as the Goliad Massacre. Despite their surrender under terms of protection, Santa Anna ordered the execution of the prisoners, believing they posed a threat. This brutal act further galvanized Texan resistance against Mexican rule and became a rallying point in the Texas Revolution. The phrase "Remember Goliad!" became a rallying cry for Texan forces.
At the end of The Battle of Goliad, after Texans surrendered, Fannin and his troops were marched back to Goliad and imprisoned in the old presido.
After the Battle of Goliad, about 400 rebel Texans surrendered to the Mexican army.
british troops surrendered
The statement "I commanded 400 Texans at Goliad" is attributed to Colonel James Fannin. He was a key figure during the Texas Revolution and led the Texan forces at the Battle of Coleto near Goliad in March 1836. Fannin and his troops ultimately surrendered to Mexican General José de Urrea, leading to the tragic Goliad Massacre.

Legend is that local women is traditional dress, red and black looking like soldiers, paraded on a cliff top. The French thought they were troops and surrendered. Many were locked up in a prison in Pembroke.
USMC Vet informed me that there is no way to have an exact tally of the US Forces who surrendered in battles or skirmishes. The Japanese and the Germans killed many troops who supposedly surrendered and some may really have been captured against their will. The death count of these troops is vague too.
