Texas at 175

 

 

 

Texian volunteer at the Alamo, a reenactor on this 175th anniversary of the Texas Revolution.

At least his physique is plausible.

Too many reenactors these days, particularly Civil War ones, are aging fatsos with white hair. Reflecting our overfed, indulgent culture, rather than the more austere 19th century.
