Originally commanded by John Bell Hood, the Brigade had an auspicious record as one of the hardest hitting units in the Army of Northern Virginia. From the Peninsular campaign, through 2nd Manassas, Antietam and Fredericksburg, the Texas brigade seemed to find itself at a decisive juncture in each battle. That record continued at Gettysburg. Now under the command of Jerome Robertson with Hood leading the division, the Brigade also included the 1st Texas and the 3rd Arkansas. The Texas brigade was in the vanguard of Longstreet’s July 2nd attack. As the brigade advanced down into the Plum Run valley the 4th and 5th Texas guided on Law’s Brigade to their right. Due to this they became separated from the 1st Texas and 3rd Arkansas. Eventually this separation placed the 4th and 5th Texas 300 yards and one hill to the east of the rest of the Brigade. That hill was Little Round Top. Command had now devolved to the regimental level as Robertson was with the remainder of the brigade. Hood was already wounded. Somehow the two “lost” regiments fused with the 4th Alabama of Law’s brigade and moved forward the rough and wooded ground at the base of Round Top. After pushing off skirmishers they emerged from the woods at the base of a 150 foot boulder strewn hill topped by Union troops. “A mountain goat might have revelled.” said one Texan. This Diograph shows the 5th Texas’s view early in the initial attack. Just visible above are portions of the 16th Michigan and the 44th NY. The two Texas Regiments made perhaps five different attempts to take the hill. It is hard to fathom what type of courage that required. Both Colonels went down early but that did not stop the effort. The last attack came within yards of the top and was only stopped by a desperate charge by the 140th NY who arrived just as the Northern line began to crumble. Of 409 men who went into action that day from the 5th Texas, 211 were killed, wounded, or missing. Reviews for Gettysburg Diographics:"Great piece- looks great in my office, thanks.'
