You mean some information survived the cultural cleansing? Appreciate the info, and looking forward to the results.

If the Confederate Battle Flag goes, next will be the 'candystriped' flag, probably to be replaced by the UN flag.

I support the Confederate Battle Flag as a symbol of the South, of liberty and freedom; and a symbol against tyranny. I look at it as not only a flag of heritage, but a flag of hope for the future. Therefore, it is a modern flag as well as an historic one. Nylon is okay by me, as long as it's not made in communist China.

according to BLACKS IN BLUE AND GRAY, by Professor H R Blackerby of Tuskeegee University, between 100,000 & 300,000 black men (& not a few black women BTW) served as uniformed CSA soldiers,sailors & marines. by one estimate about 30% of the CSMC was black by 1862.

according to a professor from American University, "almost by accident the rebel army became the first FULLY RACIALLY INTERGRATED modern army".

in the midst of a fight for liberty, skin color,gender,physical handicap,religion or any other similar characteristic becomes irrelevant. good southron soldiers, sailors & marines couldn't have cared less about such things;they just wanted FREEDOM!
