CONFEDERATE HERITAGE

FLAGS of the INDEPENDENT SOUTH
FLAGS of the INDEPENDENT SOUTH. This is an excellent historical presentation by SCV 741. Although most people only associate one flag with the Confederate, there were actually many flags used by the CSA. The Flags of the South would most often represent the individual States, since back then in 1861, no one referred to themselves as an American, but rather by the State they came from, (e.g. South Carolinian, Georgian, Virginian, Floridian, etc). The many and various State flags and CSA flags are thoroughly illustrated and explained

Confederate Reenactment, Ocklawaha, MARION, FL, BATTLE
This Reenactment commemorates the March 1865 Union raid on plantations east of Ocala, Florida on the Ocklawaha River. This skirmish was the only battle that occurred in Marion County during the "War of Northern Aggression'. A raiding party of thirty (30) Union soldiers, run by Sgt. Major Henry James of the Jacksonville garrison, traveled by boat down the St. John’s River and disembarked and marched into Marion County and attacked and destroyed the Marshal’s Plantation. While the attack was going on a servant rode into Ocala, Florida and alerted the home guard. The home guard militia company came from Ocala and skirmished with the enemy. It was a running fight from the Plantation to what was then the 'Marshal's Bridge', which is where the present day Sharpes Ferry Bridge stands, on highway 314, east of Ocala. The skirmish ended at the bridge when the Federals burned it behind
them, which blocked the pursuit by the Southern home guard. The fighting then was virtually over.
Two (2) of the Southern home guard were killed in the fighting, with two (2) more of the Southern home guard dying later from wounds. The Federal raiding party had two (2) dead and four (4) wounded. The Federal raiding party then managed to attack another Plantation} on the opposite side of the river, but did not have time to destroy it. The Federal raiding party then headed to the Union garrison at St. Augustine, FL. The raiding party was pursued in route by 15 Confederate cavalry who caught up with them, nearly at the gated of the St. Augustine Union garrison. The Confederate cavalry was able to re-capture much of the property that the Union raiding property had taken off the Plantations. But there was no reported combat between the two forces at this time. and Federal raiding party made their escape into the St. Augustine Union garrison. Thus ended the raid.
ENLIST
The Yankee War is now being waged for "beauty and booty". They have driven us from them and now say OUR TRADE they must and will have. To excite their hired and rufian soldiers, they promise them our lands and tell them our women are beautiful - that beauty is the reward of the brave. Southerners! Your Country Calls! Shall we wait until our homes are laid desolute; until sword and rape has visited them! NEVER! Then TO ARMS and let us meet the enemy on the borders. Who is so vile, so craven as to not strike for his Native Land?
The undersigned purpose to immediately raise an infantry company to be offered to the Governor as part of the defense of the State and of the Confederate States. All those who desire to join with us in serving our common enemy will REPORT THEMSELVES IMMEDIATELY TO:

Author of 'UNION {revenue} AT ALL COSTS
from Confederation to Consolidation
John Taylor & Book 'Union at All Costs'
QUOTES:
"There is no mystery why lovers of big government strongly loathe the Confederacy and worship Lincoln. The Confederate soldier represents the last true defense of consensual constitutional government and they were the last real threat to the omnipotent leviathan state"
John M. Taylor
"The contest is really for empire on the side of the North, and the independence on that of the South, and in this respect we recognize an exact analogy between the North and the Government of George III, and the South and the Thirteen Revolted Provinces. These opinions....are the general opinions of the English nation".
London Times, November 7th, 1861
"All that the South has ever desired was that the Union as established by our forefathers should be preserved and that the government as originally organized should be administered in purity and truth".
Robert E. Lee
"with her immense staples, {the South} has furnished near three-fourths of the entire exports of the country. Last year she furnished seventy-two percent. Of the whole...It is impossible to estimate the amount of money realized yearly out of the South by the North."
Daily Chicago Times, December 10th, 1860
"These holders of the debt are to be paid still further --- and [perhaps doubly, triply, or quadruply paid -- by such tariffs on imports as will enable our home manufacturers to realize enormous prices for their commodities; also by such monopolies in banking as will enable them to keep control of, and thus enslave and plunder, the industry and trade of the great body of the Northern people themselves"
Lysander Spooner, abolitionist from Athol, Massachusetts and a supporter of the South.

Abe Lincoln = Tyrant, Here's WHY they Hide the TRUTH
"The pretense that the 'abolition of slavery' was either a motive or justification for the war, is a fraud of the same character with that of 'maintaining national honor.'... [The Republicans did not end slavery] as an act of justice to the black man himself, but only as a 'war measure'....They wanted his [the black man's] assistance... in carrying on the war they [the North] had undertaken for maintaining and intensifying that political, commercial, and industrial slavery."
~Massachusetts Abolitionist Lysander Spooner in his 1867 essay entitled "No Treason"
Source: "Lincoln Unmasked: What You're Not Supposed to Know About Dishonest Abe" by Thomas DiLorenzo, 2009, page 59
History portrays Lincoln as a country lawyer when in fact he was a lawyer for the railroads which back then were the equivalent of the oil companies of today. When the South seceded they took control of all these railroad lines. The railroad owners wanted them back and Lincoln was the guy they had elected to do it for them. Lincoln was a puppet of the railroad magnates.

Correcting Injustice , Andersonville vs Hellmira, POW's in the 'Civil War'
Additional facts demonstrated here are:
1) President Jefferson Davis certainly was not antisemitic.
2) The South definitely did suffer a Holocaust at the hands of Union generals.
3) The entire reason for the invasion by the North was over the tariff revenue.
Defending Confederate Honor is a task that most people won't do today, but the Truth is that the Confederacy and Southerners in general were far more honorable than their Northern antagonists.
True {real} history is never told by the side that wins.

Parrot Rifled Cannon, 'War Between the States' Era
Brooksville Raid Re-enactment,
Confederate Cannon

BrooksVille Raid, COLD HARBOR, Confederate Reenactment.
'War Between the States' historical reenactment. The largest 1861-1865 war reenactment in Florida, featuring authentic, period-correct Confederate and Union uniforms, weapons and gear. Hundreds of spectators enjoyed the event, which was held at the Sand Hill Boy Scout Camp in Brooksville, Florida.
For this video clip. These are the event announcer's comments:
At Cold Harbor General Robert E. Lee's lines were 7 miles long, lining the low ridges and in a curve.
This made the field a 'killing field'. On June 3rd, 1864 at 4:30 in the morning, the Union started their advance. Almost immediately with massive fire from the Confederate lines, there were heavy casualties of Union soldiers and the survivors were pinned down. One Union soldier in Hancock's division is quoted 'we felt it was murder, not war or at best a very serious mistake had been made'.
At 7:00 am Grant ordered Meade to exploit any successful point of the assault, so another Union attack was ordered. At 12:30 pm, Grant conceded his army was done. That morning there had been over 7,000 Union casualties, with 1,500 casualties for the Confederates. Not wanting to concede defeat in the struggle, Grant refused to ask for a truce to care for his wounded. So the Union wounded remained on the field from June 3rd to after June 7th, which was 'too late' for most of these wounded Union soldiers. The casualties at Cold harbor was for the Union at 13,000 with the
Confederacy at 5,000 casualties. He created the signs to disengage and move to his left one more time. Grant's plan was to move on Petersburg, VA which was the railway and center of supply and line of communication to Richmond, Virginia (the Confederate capitol). Grant crosses the James River by pontoon bridge. Confederate General Beauregard defends Petersburg successfully until reinforcements from General Lee's Army can arrive. Both sides settled into 10 months of trench warfare. Grant eventually over-extends General Lee's lines, crashing Lee's right flank in April of 1865. A few weeks later, General Lee surrendered the Army of North Virginia at Appomattox Court House. Grant was satisfied in setting up a siege of Richmond. It worked at Vicksburg, because Grant know that supplies could not get in, ammunition would be waning and the entire will-to-fight ould be de-moralized. See here the Confederate Army has gone into the town of Petersburg, VA and the trenches around Richmond. .

Reenactment 1864, Lee vs Grant 'Civil War' History.
Per the announcer at the 1861-1865 'War Between the States' reenactment event that occurred at Brooksville, Florida:
The 'Overland Campaign' lasted a little less than 6 weeks. In that 6 weeks period of time, there were 80,000 casualties. Union General Grant lost as many soldiers as Confederate General Lee had in his
entire army. The difference was that General Lee could not replace those that he lost. Union General Grant had an almost endless supply of material and soldiers. By the time that General Grant had broke the lines of General Lee 10 months later, there were some 200,000 Union soldiers around, while General Lee's army had been reduced to around 40,000.

Large CHEROKEE BRAVES Flag in the WIND
This is the Largest CHEROKEE BRAVES Flag that I could find at 5 X 8 Ft. At a cost of $130 it''s expensive for a flag this size and this because the letters for 'CHEROKEE BRAVES' are sewn on both sides of the flag. Printed flags will show 'CHEROKEE BRAVES' backwards on the reserve side. Sewn flags show 'CHEROKEE BRAVES' correctly from both sides of the flag. The CHEROKEE fought for the CSA and they never actually surrendered .
