CSA Signature Series - Stonewall Jackson Lapel Pin (Our Guys) - 1"

"Thomas J. “Stonewall” Jackson was a West Point graduate, veteran of the Mexican War (1846–1848), instructor at the Virginia Military Institute in Lexington, and Confederate general under Robert E. Lee during the American Civil War (1861–1865). One of Lee’s ablest commanders, Jackson earned his famous nickname during the First Battle of Manassas in 1861 when a fellow general is said to have cried out, “There is Jackson standing like a stone wall! Rally behind the Virginians!” ... When Jackson was accidentally wounded by his own men during the Battle of Chancellorsville (1863), Lee relayed to him a message: “Give General Jackson my affectionate regards, and say to him: he has lost his left arm but I my right.” Jackson died eight days later due to complications from the injury. A martyr to his cause during the war, Jackson has become an iconic figure in Southern culture, second only to Lee in the pantheon of Confederate heroes." - from Encyclopedia Virginia

Anyone considering buying a lapel pin of Stonewall Jackson needs no introduction to the man. But we do owe him undeniable gratitude, honor, and emulation. Above all, he was a Christian man of action -- as we should be as well. This Stonewall Jackson Lapel Pin is a 1" pin, and includes his historical signature. To learn more about Jackson, I highly recommend reading:
