I-64 Savage's Station Kershaw's Brigade Memorial Battle Flag Raised in Virginia This Morning

At a private ceremony in Henrico County this morning, the Virginia Flaggers raised their 12th Roadside Memorial Battle Flag, and the first on Interstate 64 in Virginia. On land leased from a private citizen, a 10' x 15' Army of Tennessee Battle Flag was raised on a 50' pole to the cheers and shouts of those in attendance.

This location has high visibility... and with traffic counts of 70,000+ reported daily, and its close proximity to the Capital of the Confederacy... will be a very visible reminder to citizens, tourists, and all who see her, of Richmond's rich Confederate heritage and history. Historically significant, the flag site flies on the actual site of Savage's Station Battlefield...on land where Kershaw's Brigade charged Yankee troops on the evening of June 29, 1862.

The flag was dedicated this morning to the Glory of God, and in memory and honor of our Confederate Heroes. She will serve as a living breathing memorial, and a 24/7 reminder that there are still those of use with Confederate blood flowing through our veins who will not sit idly by while our heritage is attacked, history is erased, and our Veterans become the subject of derision Gen. Cleburne warned us about over 150 years ago.

"The world shall yet decide
In truth's clear far-off light
That the Soldiers who wore the gray and rode with Lee
Were in the right."

The Virginia Flaggers Memorial Battle Flag projects are made possible by financial support from across the Commonwealth and beyond. We have several more projects in development, and a waiting list for flags that grows longer with every new heritage violation that occurs.

"For every flag removed, a thousand more will rise to take its place."
