What did Sam Houston do in the war of the Alamo?

The Battle of the AlamoThere was no "war" of the Alamo. There was a battle at the Alamo in San Antonio, Texas in March of 1836. Sam Houston did not participate in this battle, although he was commander of the revolutionary forces at the time. While Col. William B. Travis and 186 other Texas revolutionaries stalled Santa Anna at the Alamo, Sam Houston was moving eastward across Texas, working to recruit and train an army to successfully defeat Santa Anna's forces. A few weeks after the fall of the Texan forces at the Alamo, Sam Houston's army met with Santa Anna's army and quickly defeated the Mexicans at a place called San Jacinto, just east of where present day Houston, Texas is now located.
