When this flag is unfurled by the breeze and waves above your heads, may each breath of Heaven remind you of these near and dear ties that are common to all human beings, your wives, mothers, children, sisters, and friends . . . . There are none in your company, I trust, who have not some such ties existing, and may the remembrance of those dear ties serve to nerve your arms to do their utmost in the day and hour of our need.

In March 1862, two great armies fought on the cold, snowy fields of Northwest Arkansas. Each regiment brought their own flag, a banner they proudly flew during each conflict. These banners were rallying points, a symbol of pride, and each was unique.

A soldiers' promise: I am proud that to my keeping is committed this banner, and though it may be shattered and torn in the conflict, you have my pledge that it shall never trail in disgrace; but, as the combat deepens, we will rally in very desperation of energy and proudly bear it aloft in the honor of victory, or compose it about us in the hour of death.  It shall ever be found above us or around us!

Learn more about the flags that flew during the Battle of Pea Ridge, by exploring the exhibit below.
