A printed 48-star flag, 15-½" X 11-½", stenciled with " VETERANS REUNION / 9TH BATT. O.V.I. / MAJ. CHAS. YOUNG / COMMANDING." The 9th Ohio was the state's only black regiment to see action in the war. This flag was issued in 1923 for the veterans' 25th reunion held in Dayton. Charles Young, a career officer and Buffalo Soldier veteran, was the third African-American to graduate from West Point. Fine condition.
