Wikipedia sucks and that is why college professors will not accept it as a research source. Only God knows how much misinformation they publish. And Dennis, I have a suggestion. You referred to the U.S. flag as the "American" flag. It is true and I have probably said it many times. I think that you would agree the CBF and the national flags are all just as "American" as any U.S. flag. I like to call them the American flags of the Confederacy and I do not mind if it starts a conversation.
