This comment may be unpopular but here it is.
The proper honors were rendered by Joshua Chamberlain to the soldiers and colors of the southern armies at Appomattox..
Why a Confederate battle flag flies in any official capacity, State or Fed property, is beyond me. As to memorials the State Flag of the soldiers should be displayed as they fought for Virginia, S Carolina etc...not some notion of a national entity that exists today and did not exist at that time.
Individual can do as they choose, as can any corporate entity.
This is solely about flying the Confederate battle Flag on Fed/State property...what ind. do is up to them.
