The Six Flags of Texas Color Guard is a favorite in local parades for presenting the colorful history of our state through the flags and correct uniforms of those how settled and fought for Texas. We also carry our Alabama Red Rover Guidon when manpower allows. The six flags are as follows: France (1685-1690), Spain (1519-1685; 1690-1821), Mexico (1821-1836), Republic of Texas (1836-1845), Confederate States of America (1861-1865), and United States of America (1845-1861; 1865- Present).<\/p>\n
Los Soldados de Nueva Espana was established as a group of living historians that want to portray the men and woman of Spanish Colonial Texas with strong ties to Central Texas the group \u201cadopted\u201d Presidio San Luis de las Amarillas (popularly known as Presidio de San Sab\u00e1), one mile from Menard on the north bank of the San Saba River, was established in April 1757 as a support for the Santa Cruz de San Sab\u00e1 Mission to the eastern (Lipan) Apaches. It is our goal to make an accurate impression of the soldiers and civilians that were stationed and lived at Presidio de San Sab\u00e1 , concentrating on the years closer to its closing in 1772. These impressions are not only the soldiers called Presidiales or Soldados de Cuera that were garrisoned at a Presidio or Mission but also the civilians that lived there also which included the soldier\u2019s wife and family, priest, Christianized indians, Caddo scouts, and Lipan Apaches.<\/p>\n \r\n\r\n\t Click here to learn more about this impression.<\/a><\/p>\n \r\n\r\n\t \r\n\r\n\t Six Flags of Texas Color Guard The Six Flags of Texas Color Guard is a favorite in local parades for presenting the colorful history of our state through the flags and correct uniforms of those how settled and fought for Texas.
