CSA Flags

CSA "Battle Flag" Aka "Rebel Flag", by  georgiainfo

Did you know that the CSA's (Confederate States Of America) "Rebel Flag" (shown above) was actually the CSA Battle Flag?  As commonly mistaken by people today, the "Battle Field" Flag was never meant to represent the CSA as a national flag. 

During the US Civil War at the battle of Bull Run near Manassas Junction, Virginia, Confederate generals had fond the CSA National Flag of 1861-1863 "The Stars and Bars" (shown below) hard to distinguish from the United States National Flag and urged for a new flag to be made for battle field.
