Gettysburg Bookstore Pulls Confederate Flag Merchandise

GETTYSBURG, Pa. (CBS) – The bookstore at Gettysburg National Military Park is the latest to pull items featuring the Confederate flag.

Gettysburg says it will no longer sell items that use the battle flag as a stand-alone feature.

The bookstore will continue to sell merchandise that features both the U.S. and the Confederate flags where the image is depicted in its historical context.

The National Park Service had asked concessionaries to make the move in the wake of last week's massacre in South Carolina.
