"Remember the Alamo!" became a rallying cry for Texian soldiers during the Texas Revolution, symbolizing their struggle for independence from Mexico following the defeat at the Alamo in March 1836. It served to evoke a sense of unity and determination among Texian forces in their fight against the Mexican army.
