That flag is in Beaumont TX and the color has faded from navy blue to a greenish color.

My gggrandfather was with the 33rd AL. I was under the impression they surrendered with Johnston. The sentries were arresting men as deserters who were walking home after the April 9th surrender. They had not heard of it yet. They drilled up until the April 26 surrender date.
