What makes you think that I was upset? I may be blunt with responses, I don’t allow strangers to have control of my feelings.

I guess it could be confusing, maybe they should be refer to them as Macon Arsenal made flags, Macon Arsenal contract flag. I would guess that if the arsenal fly a flag it would have been a National or State flag, 75% being a National.

I have yet to read of a government building flying a battle flag (outside of seeing them in movies, illustration’s etc. modern day stuff) but I have data on National flags and State flags being used as battle flags.

General Lee did issue an order that all State and National flags be removed from the battle field, this was after the Richmond Depot was up to speed on distributing the ANV battle flag. Virginia & North Carolina troops seemed to have a problem follow that order.

Does that clear it up? It was all Shawn fault by not being clear in his reference to this subject :)

Happy Trails!
