Company B, 21st Virginia Infantry Regiment “Maryland Troops” Flag – American Civil War Nylon Series Reproduction Flag

A Banner Honoring the Maryland Volunteers of the 21st Virginia

The Company B, 21st Virginia Infantry Regiment “Maryland Troops” Flag – American Civil War Nylon Series Reproduction Flag pays tribute to Marylanders who crossed into Virginia to join the Confederate cause in 1861. Maryland remained in the Union, yet many citizens chose to fight beside their southern neighbors. These men formed Company B of the 21st Virginia Infantry Regiment under General Stonewall Jackson and later General Jubal Early. Their banner reflects devotion to both home and comrades, symbolizing unity across state lines.

Authentic Design and Symbolism

This historically inspired reproduction features a Maryland-style company flag centered around the state seal of Maryland. The seal rests on a white field surrounded by a gold border. Above the emblem, the dates 1634 and 1861 highlight Maryland’s founding and the year these volunteers entered Confederate service. The heraldic shield of Lord Baltimore signifies colonial heritage, while the eagle represents vigilance and courage. The gold border adds meaning—honor, remembrance, and pride.

Because Company B identified strongly as Marylanders while serving within a Virginia regiment, their flag blended both identities. It honored their origins yet stood proudly beside the colors of the Army of Northern Virginia, illustrating how regional loyalty met Confederate duty.
