5th Texas Infantry Regiment Flag – Lone Star “Hood’s Brigade” Confederate Banner 3×5 ft

Commemorate the legacy of Hood’s Texas Brigade with this historically accurate 5th Texas Infantry Flag, a rare Confederate battle banner inspired by the First National Flag of the Confederacy (Stars and Bars). Unlike other variants, this version features a single Lone Star, representing the unique identity and pride of Texas within the Confederate ranks.

Originally manufactured in Richmond, Virginia, the flag saw action during the Seven Days Battles of the Peninsula Campaign (1862). After sustaining damage, it was placed in storage at the so-called Texas Depot, until members of the 5th Texas reclaimed it — an act that reinforced the unit’s fierce independence and battlefield honor.

This flag reproduction honors that story with military-grade double-ply embroidered nylon and museum-level construction quality.
