When you mentioned the 71" x 71" dimensions for the flag of the 43rd MS that you have the scale drawing for, you realized later that the info was not in Howard's AOT flag book, but, rather, on the data sheet in your possession.

Were you, then, working from memory when quoting the above dimensions and general characteristics?

What I'm wondering, as I contemplate ordering the flag from you and as I try to envision just what the flag looked like, is:

1) Are the above dimensions and description accurate for the flag shown on the data sheet?

2) If so, does the flag look essentially like an Army of MS flag, but square?

3) If the description on the data sheet does not conform to the description above, just what type and size of flag are we talking about?

4) Is there a unit designation on the flag?

5) Are there any battle honors on the flag?

Hey! I know these are a lot of questions, but repeat customers get special treatment, right?

Also, after twenty years of research on the regiment, I'm simply dying to fix in my mind just what this flag looked like!!!!
