Summary
editDescriptionFlag, 15th Northwest Arkansas Infantry, Van Dorn Pattern.jpg |
English: Major-General Earl Van Dorn adopted this flag design for the Army of the West in February 1862, citing confusion with the Stars and Stripes. The design bears no resemblance to Union or Confederate standards with its red field, stars to represent the thirteen states, and the yellow crescent to represent Missouri. Probably presented after Hatchie Bridge, Tennessee, on 5 October 1862, the flag and its bearer were captured near Port Gibson, Mississippi, 1 May 1863. It is the only known Van Dorn flag to carry battle honors and unit designation. Physical Description:
