The Flags of the Iron Brigade



Throughout the Civil Warfare, some 5000 Union Military troopers crammed the ranks of the Iron Brigade: the Second, Sixth, and Seventh Wisconsin, the Nineteenth Indiana, and the Twenty-Fourth Michigan Volunteer Infantry regiments. The regimental flags have been a tangible image of the Union and have been at all times within the forefront of battle, proudly displayed and tenaciously defended. Many males died to maintain their flags aloft. That is the story of how the flags of the Iron Brigade got here into being and the needs they served each throughout and after the struggle.
