Hello,

A couple things. First, this flag was for one of the companies of the 10th Tennessee and MAY have been used as its regimental flag. It was left in the regiment's camps when Ft. Henry was abandoned by the CS infantry and picked up by one of Grant's regiments.

Secondly, all of the flag makers that do this flag today have it incorrect. The flag has two different sides - the Irish green side and a CS First National on the other side.

I will be including this flag in my upcoming book on Tennessee Civil War flags.
