The 5th Military District was a temporary administrative unit set up during the Reconstruction period following the American Civil War. It included Texas and Louisiana. General Philip Sheridan served as military governor, until removed by U.S. President Andrew Johnson because of charge of excessive harshness in Sheridan's treatment of former Confederate soldiers.
