ALT2: ... that unsuccessful attempts have been made to return the 28th Virginia battle flag(pictured) to Virginia from Minnesota during three different centuries? Source: See article
ALT3: ... that the 28th Virginia battle flag(pictured) is stored at an undisclosed location in the Minnesota Historical Society, and has not been returned to Virginia despite multiple requests across three centuries? Source:
The Washington Post
Overall: @
Ezlev: I see no problems with the article. You just need to do QPQ. The first three hooks are rather boring and the final one is okay. I am going to propose this hook. ALT4: ... that the 28th Virginia battle flag was captured by
Marshall Sherman(pictured) at the
Battle of Gettysburg and
Minnesota has declined to return the flag since?
