First National Flag Of The Confederacy

Commonly Known As The "Stars And Bars," The First National Flag Was Approved By The Provisional Confederate Congress And First Raised Over The Capitol Building In Montgomery, Alabama On The Afternoon Of 04 March 1861. Contrary To The Myth That It Was Quickly Replaced Due To Its Resemblance To The U.S. Flag In Battle, Several Units Proudly Carried This Banner Until The Last Days Of The War.
