POINT LOOKOUT, MD. (WUSA9) - A privately owned park in St. Mary's County has become the most overt and public site for celebration of Confederate symbols in the entire state.

The Confederate Memorial Park at Point Lookout Maryland is the outgrowth of a 19-year ban on the display of Confederate symbols at the neighboring Point Lookout Confederate Cemetery, which is federal property administered by the US Department of Veterans Affairs.

Descendants of Confederates were so outraged by the ban, they raised hundreds of thousands of dollars and bought the property next door in 2003. In the years since, the Descendants of Point Lookout POWS Organization has developed a flag court featuring a bronze statue of an unarmed southern POW, and an array of flags linked to the Confederacy. The centerpiece of the park is the Confederate battle flag flying from the tallest staff above the statue.
