Re: 69th New York "Brigade Flag" Fredericksburg

Thank You, Mr. Mclernon for that excellent information.

If Mike Sullivan did not return the flag (which did sound a bit strange to me) then what happened to the "Green Flag?" Mike Sullivan claims that during the battle he saw the "Green Flag" go down and that he "marked the spot." When the battle ended many Confederates jumped the wall and took shoes, coats, flags, muskets, ammo, etc.

This is where I found the website on the flag in question.

Let me know if that was real or made up, just seeking the truth.

Thank you for any help,

Shawn Prouty
