I would like to tell you that a newly created Confederate Roll of Honor was created for the soldiers who are on the Roll of Honor and it is not the Confederate Medal lof Honor This medal was created in 2010 and if you will look at the 2010 March-April issue of the Confederate Magazine you can read about the newly created medal and all you have to have is the soldier's record and he must not have deserted. The medal is a beautiful medal and is in a large frame with the certificate (and picture of soldier) if you have one. Again, I want to stress it is not the Confederate Medal of Honor, but the Confederate Roll of honor. An application can be obtained by writing or calling the Sons of Confederates in Columbia, Tn. Many people do not know about this new medal and so I wanted everyone to have the opportunity to get one for their soldier if their name was on the Roll of Honor, and did not desert. My family and I applied for one for our ancestor and it is on display at the Museum at Brice's Crossroads. You do not have to have the deed he did the day that he was nominated and signed off on by his commanding officer. His commanding officer knew what he did and one hundred fifty years ago, no one knows, but the other soldiers with him and his commanding officer knew and these soldiers should not be forgotten.

There is a list of soldiers on the internet called "The Winners of the Confederate roll of Honor" listing names of the soldiers and the battle they were in.

Just wanted people to know about this medal. Ths Executive Diirector at the Sons of Confederates can fully explain the medal.
