Re: For Ken Legendre. 1st Ark Ensign

Here is another from the 33rd Arkansas during battle of Jenkin's Ferry April 30, 1864....report of LTC Thompson..."Captain Dickson of Company A, seeing the color bearer shot down, gallantly raised the colors and kept them up until he was cut down by three balls". This would be Captain Washington T. Dickson.

This flag was picked up by the 50th Indiana along with that flag held,in KY you photographed and sent me. However, the 33rd's has not turned up that I am aware. It was the only one specifically identified by regiment by the Union forces. If you by any chance have photo of that other flag digital, would love another copy.
