I read about this more than 10 years ago, no one gave it much credence back then....

I think I remember most accounts had Bowie bayonetted in bed, Disney had him using 2 pistols and 2 knives first.

Myth or reality? Actor John Wayne, left, as Davy Crockett in the 1960 classic western The Alamo. A new book has cast doubt on the legend of the fort's heroic defense

I thought the same thing. I always wondered how the mexicans would have known or cared who the heck Davy Crockett was in the first place.
