Hilliard’s Alabama Legion Flag – American Civil War Nylon Series Reproduction Flag

A Banner Honoring the Valor of Hilliard’s Legion

The Hilliard’s Alabama Legion Flag commemorates one of the most distinctive units to serve the Confederacy. As part of the American Civil War Nylon Series Reproduction Flags, this 3’×5′ flag recreates the regimental banner carried by Hilliard’s Alabama Legion, a combined arms force that fought with determination in the Western Theater. Formed in Montgomery in 1862 under Colonel Henry W. Hilliard, the Legion included infantry, cavalry, and artillery elements—an uncommon organization for the time.

Authentic Design and Symbolism

This reproduction presents a deep blue field crossed by a broad gold-edged white saltire with thirteen white stars arranged in a circular pattern around the center. The design symbolizes unity among the Confederate states, while the blue field reflects loyalty and steadfastness. The gold border conveys honor and valor, qualities for which the Legion became known in campaigns across Kentucky, Tennessee, and Georgia.
