Capture the Flag: The spoils of war

Standing calm in the face of a Confederate assault, members of the First Minnesota watch as their Yankee comrades retreat while awaiting the order to charge. The regiment's valor — depicted in this painting — gained it a fame that hasn't been forgotten by Minnesotans today.
