The flag on the left looks like the type that designates a 1 star general is in the area as to the one on the right I am not sure.

The flag on the right is that of secessionist North Carolina with the dates May 20 1775 is the date that the America seceded from england and May 20 1861 was when North Carolina seceded fron the union.

I knew the one on the right was a NC flag, but the one on the left is one I don't know.
I don't think its a one-star general flag, because the Bonnie Blue flag looks just like it except it's blue with one star.
Also I'm pretty sure Civil War generals didn't fly those types of flags then, like they do now.
From the plaques at the Fort Fisher Museum it said that all the flags hanging in the hall, are replicas of Civil War flags that flew at/over the fort.

I guess I forgot to add in the first post, the picture is at the Fort Fisher Civil War museum in Fort Fisher NC.

I didnt know that this was Ft Fisher. I can not find anything in my books on the red flag with a single white star. It may have been a short lived war flag for N.C like the what was used by Georgia for a few weeks and was changed as it was mistaken as a flag of surrender. it was a white fields w/ a red star.
