The Civil War Flags Message Board

Re: 1864 was the presentation!

Ben,

It was a little unusual to find records of a Confederate Officer receiving a presentation ( I call them parade ) Flag and a field flag of bunting. A few years earlier it was the norm in the U.S. Army, it seams to have faded with the war effort to supply flags.

Nice research, I wish other would do the same with citations to actual sources.

Greg does an excellent job on his research also. Thank You both for this debate it makes this board what it is.

Happy Trails!
Tom Martin
