28th Louisiana Battle Flag

Would any one have any information on the flag(s) carried by the 28th (Thomas') Louisiana Infantry? They were one of several units raised following the fall of New Orleans and were sent immediately to the defense of Vicksburg, where they were engaged at Chickasaw Bluffs prior to pulling back within the Vicksburg perimeter. They served on the left flank of the line near Fort Hill. Following reorganization at Camp Enterprise after Vicksburg, they served in the Trans-Mississippi, fighting at Mansfield and Pleasant Hill. I've been looking for information on their flag for a while now and have run into multiple dead-ends. I've even tried researching the flags of the units they were brigaded with and come up empty. Any information at all would be greatly appreciated.
