American Civil War
TWENTIETH REGIMENT INFANTRY
This flag was carried in all the campaigns of the regiment until the spring of 1864, when becoming very much tattered and torn it became necessary to send it back to the State.
The regiment crossed the Rappahannock December 13th, 1862, but being in the reserve at the battle of Fredericksburg, its loss was only 11 wounded, most of them slightly. After the return to camp near Falmouth the regiment suffered much from sickness, embarking at Aquia Creek February 19th, 1863, for Newport News.
