Well, yeah, to a point. There were so many Confederate flags and associated stories, sometimes it depends on who is telling a particular war story as to which one it was. Different variations of the Stars and Bars originated in different areas of VA from Tidewater to Piedmont regions of the state.
The most popular was usually associated with the ANV (Potomac). Problem is that many believe the Stars & Bars was and is the real and only flag of the CSA.
