Description
This is a reproduction of an authentic antique Army Orders Broadside dated March 2, 1836, Washington D.C., from Sam Houston, Commander in Chief of the Texian Army calling all Texas defenders to arms. The last of the defenders of the Alamo had died within four days after the date of this call to arms.
The Texian Army, also known as the Revolutionary Army and Army of the People, was the land warfare branch of the Texian armed forces during the Texas Revolution. It spontaneously formed from the Texian Militia in October 1835 following the Battle of Gonzales. Along with the Texian Navy, it helped the Republic of Texas win independence from the Centralist Republic of Mexico on May 14, 1836 at the Treaties of Velasco.
