Re: I have found a Union flag captured at Sharpsbu

That is excellent news. I had always wondered if the flag was saved or captured.

I have another question for you. The 4th Pennsylvania Reserves fought at Cloyd's Mountain, did they lose two flags? The 60th Virginia claimed "2 colors" in their regimental history. On a map in the 60th Virginia's regimental history showed the 4th Pennsylvania Reserves directly in front of the 60th Va.

I have gone through many Union regimental histories at the LOC but not many admitted to losing a color.

Well thank you for the huge help!

Have a good day,

Shawn Prouty
