Default Sci-Fi readers, need your help...

In finding a book, or maybe a trilogy of books. About 20 years ago, I remember seeing on a newstand a book in which a modern day army squadron or battalion went back in time to save the Alamo. I wish I had bought the book at the time, but for whatever reason, I didn't. I don't recall the exact title or author, but it seems that I saw another similar book a few years later. So it may have been a series. If anyone recalls such a book, please let me know the title and author so I can finally purchase this book.

Hehe, I was looking. Didn't find it, but I found a humerous little time travel short story.

Thanks, Spoon. I'll try looking for it in some of the used book stores around here.

Good work guys!

How about this...

A novel by John Brunner about a talaented computer programmer gone anti-establishment. I read part of it as a teen & have never been able to remember the title or recognize the book when looking at John Brunner titles.

Thanks In Advance
