Stars Peter Ustinov as the leader of a raggle-taggle platoon of Mexican national guardsmen in a successful capture of the Texas Alamo after 163 years of foreign dominion.
Brigadier General Maximilian Rodrigues de Santos of the army of Mexico arrives at a border crossing with a small company of soldiers on foot. He claims to be leading his men to Laredo, Texas to march in a parade on George Washington's birthday. The soldiers' destination is actually San Antonio, where the general intends to carry out a quixotic mission to "re-occupy" the Alamo. None of his men are aware of his plans, but without argument they do whatever they are told.
