- CSA Signature Series - Nathan Bedford Forrest Lapel Pin (Our Guys) - 1"

"At fourteen he became the head of his impoverished family, responsible for feeding eleven on the rough American frontier. By thirty-nine he had established himself as a successful plantation owner worth over $1 million. And at forty years old, Nathan Bedford Forrest enlisted in a Tennessee cavalry regiment" and went on to become one of the greatest legends every to ride for the Southern Cause. 

Anyone considering buying a lapel pin of Nathan Bedford Forrest needs no introduction to the man. But we do owe him our dutiful study, honesty, and respect for all he gave for the people and place for which he fought and loved. Above all, through the persistent prayers of his wife, Forrest eventually converted to Christ, a fact overlooked or ignored in far too many reconstructed histories of our time.

This is a 1" round pin, and includes Forrest's historical signature.
