I know my History, Ed knows his here, do you? If not, no biggy, just learn, or stay ignorant. I don’t throw hate, just the truth and feelings… 🙂 Hope everyone is A-0K …Shauny..Via Eddie.

Battle Flag of the 1st Virginia Infantry
The CSA had a total of three flags during their time as a country.
This first flag caused to much confusion as to who was CSA and who was USA.
