Re: 5th Alabama Battlion Battle Flag

This flag had so many neat things about it. If you looked at the Battle Honor for HARPER'S FERRY the P was an R with with the right diagonal painted out with red making it a P. The Battle Honor for CHANCELLORSVILLE was spelled C-H-A-N-C-E-L-L-O-S-V-I-L-L-E. What's also interesting it that the flag at some point in time was cut in two. You can see the line that separates the upper and lower half that have since been joined together. The photo below was taken at the APG show earlier this month. Thanks to Bob Sarnowski for the photograph.
