Item of the Week

20th Kansas Volunteer Infantry flag

On December 10th, 1898 representatives of Spain and the United States signed a treaty to end the Spanish-American War. The treaty was passed by the U.S. Senate and signed by President William McKinley in February of 1899. Under this agreement Spain surrendered the Philippine Islands, Guam and Puerto Rico to the United States, and withdrew control in Cuba. This is a silk regimental flag of the Twentieth Kansas Volunteer Infantry, which served in the Spanish-American War from 1898 to 1899. The flag is blue with the State Seal in the center. Gold fringe is attached to three sides. The regiment saw service in the Philippines, both in combat and as an occupation force at the conclusion of the fighting. Frederick Funston served as its commander. The Twentieth was the only of the four Kansas regiments to see action during the war.
