1st Tennessee Infantry Regiment Flag – American Civil War Nylon Series Reproduction Flag

A Banner Honoring Tennessee’s First Volunteers

The 1st Tennessee Infantry Regiment Flag – American Civil War Nylon Series Reproduction Flag honors the earliest Tennesseans to join the Confederate cause. Organized in May 1861, this regiment fought in several major campaigns, including Shiloh, Perryville, Murfreesboro, and Chickamauga. These battles forged its legacy and tested the determination of every soldier who served beneath its banner. Moreover, the flag stands as a symbol of their courage and steadfast devotion throughout the war. This 3′×5′ reproduction preserves their story with both dignity and historical accuracy.

Authentic Design and Symbolism

This 1st Tennessee Infantry Regiment Flag – American Civil War Nylon Series Reproduction Flag accurately recreates one of the earliest Confederate patterns flown in the Western Theater. The navy-blue field is crossed by a red St. George’s Cross bordered in white and emblazoned with thirteen stars. Each star represents a Confederate state, forming a clear and balanced design. Across the upper white bar, the inscription “1ST REGT TENN” identifies the regiment. Because of its rectangular format and central cross, the banner differs from the later St. Andrew’s Cross flags used in the Eastern armies. Furthermore, the restrained color palette gives this flag a dignified appearance, symbolizing unity, faith, and discipline among Tennessee’s soldiers.
