Re: Second National CS Flag at Gettysburg

Agreed. I've spoken with Greg Biggs about this very issue and he told me that there were NO second nationals at Gettysburg. The closest representation was a white "streamer" or tail that had been added to a North Carolina unit's battleflag. This would have been the only thing close to a second national. I'm sure Greg will see this post and submit his expert response. But I do remember our lengthy telephone conversation. We were discussing flags in films, especially "Gettysburg" and "Gods and Generals".
