Did you know that during the Vietnam War, a division of American soldiers was fighting under a Confederate flag? President Johnson wanted the flags removed.*
This is yet another example of the South not conceding that it lost the Civil War, not the War of Northern Aggression, as it’s called in Dixieland. When you look at the Hayes-Tilden Compromise of 1877, then you’ll see why the South believes it won the war.
