The Bonnie Blue Flag
You are listening to "The Bonnie Blue Flag"

"We are a band of brothers and native to the soil
Fighting for the property we gained by honest toil
And when our rights were threatened, the cry rose near and far
Hurrah for the Bonnie Blue Flag that bears a single star!"

PROPHETIC WORDS:

"Every man should endeavor to understand the meaning of subjugation before it is too late. It means the history of this heroic struggle will be written by the enemy; that our youth will be trained by Northern school teachers; will learn from Northern school books their version of the war; will be impressed by the influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors, and our maimed veterans as fit objects for derision. . ."

Maj. Gen. Cleburne Maj. Gen. Patrick R. Cleburne, CSA (Killed, Battle of Franklin, Tennessee, November 30, 1864)
