Sam Houston identified Santa Anna by capturing him after the Battle of San Jacinto in 1836. During the battle, Houston's forces defeated Santa Anna's troops, and in the aftermath, they discovered him disguised as a common soldier. Houston recognized him and arranged for his capture, leading to Santa Anna's eventual signing of treaties that granted Texas its independence from Mexico. This identification was crucial in solidifying Houston's leadership and the Texan victory.
