Charles,
I am very interested in finding information on/the source of your comments on the 23rd Wisconsin hiding its flag at the Battle of Bayou Bourbeaux.

"23rd Wisconsin Infantry, battle of Carrion Crow Bayou, La., Color Bearer Sgt. George W. Johnson was severely wounded in legs. To save the flag from the enemy he hid the flag beside a log and covered it with leaves. His comrades recovered it the next day."

I live but a few miles from this battlefield and I have a great interest in it.

Thanks and please feel free to email me directly: ssalling@charter.net
