Gonzales Flag – “Come and Take It” Cannon Flag | 3×5 Ft Double Nylon Embroidered (Military Quality)

The Gonzales Flag, known as the Come and Take It Flag, marked the first armed resistance of the Texas Revolution in September 1835. When Mexican troops under Santa Anna marched to seize a small cannon from the town of Gonzales, Texian settlers raised this banner — a white field with a lone star, a black cannon, and the words “Come and Take It.”

Col. John Henry Moore challenged Mexican Lieutenant Francisco de Castañeda to retrieve the cannon. Moore ordered a shot fired from the cannon beneath this flag — and the Mexican force retreated. This was the first battle flag of Texas and a symbol of defiance still used today.
