I often wondered where the 52nd Virginia Flag resides now.

I looked and the M.O.C does not have it in their database.

It refers to Mike's post from a satire website claiming Pickett was, in fact, a woman.

Great post ! Thank you. Such flags of great honor. I wonder how many of the were actually "captured" I have read were many flags, especially at Gettysburg, were just picked up, hardly what I would call "captured", but I suppose in that era it was consider capturing a flag. One still had to be in the battle and stand the mettle of fire to be picking up a flag.

Respectfully,

Is the 19th Virginia flag shown?

Yes its the one with no number, the union soldiers cut out the 19.

I apologize to everyone I could not find the flag of the 32nd Virginia Infantry.

Not all of the above flags were present at Gettysburg, but most of them were.

All those flags are authentic and saw combat in the Civil War with their respected regiments.
