About The Sentry

 

Alamo Sentry was created on December 10th, 2003 by Wade Dillon in response to the growing fan base and historical field that followed the production of the 2004 Alamo film. The purpose of this website and messageboard community is for all of those with a passion for the subject to gather, learn, and discuss the many films, legends, myths, and facts that surround the Alamo of popular culture.

Pen

The Alamo Sentry site is, to my mind, the perfect blending of the pop-culture Alamo with the real Alamo. Not heavily shaded towards one or the other aspect, the site offers “one-stop shopping” for the enthusiast looking for either. Here he can find serious insight into scholarly Alamo subjects or, if he prefers, discuss just about any aspect of the many iconic Alamo films and pop-culture products. There are sites which cater to the consistently-serious scholars as well as those for the no less-serious movie buffs. The Sentry has found the balance between the two.

My generation has stacked arms and put out the fire, having done all the damage we can do to the topic of the Alamo. Wade Dillon has picked up the torch and will continue to do so for the next generation.

Alamo Sentry reflects Wade Dillon’s sincere passion for the Alamo, the Shrine of Texas Liberty. Alamo Sentry caters to diversified interests by providing a host of informative and entertaining threads that range from current research and classic literature to memorable films and other artistic manifestations of Texas’ most iconic landmark.
