Saturday morning,March 28th, in a private
ceremony, the Virginia Flaggers raised a 20' x 30' battle flag on an 80' pole on
private land on Interstate I-81/I-64 just north/east of Lexington, Virginia..
…To the Glory of God and in
memory and honor of our gallant Confederate heroes.
“The world shall yet
decide,
In truth’s clear far-off light
That the soldiers who wore the grey and died with Lee
Were in the right.”
In truth’s clear far-off light
That the soldiers who wore the grey and died with Lee
Were in the right.”
She will fly proudly as a
living, breathing memorial to our Confederate dead, and a beautiful tribute to
our gallant ancestors. But, in the face of constant attacks by those who
worship ignorance, historical revisionism, and political correctness, and at a
time when the town of Lexington seems determined to completely ignore the
sacrifice of Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson, she will also be a visible reminder
to all who see her that there are still many of us with Confederate blood
coursing through our veins, who refuse to allow the ignorance and prejudice of
others to force us to relinquish our birthright.
The Lexington I-81 Memorial
Battle Flag is the fourth roadside memorial battle flag erected in Virginia by
the Va Flaggers since September of 2013, and part of an ongoing project to
promote Confederate history and heritage, and honor Confederate Veterans in the
Commonwealth. This project, and numerous other heritage defense efforts, is
made possible through the generosity of supporters from across America and
beyond.
Long may she wave!
