Charge to the Confederate Veterans"To you, Sons of Confederate Veterans, we submit the vindication of the Cause
for which we fought; to your strength will be given the defense of the
Confederate soldier's good name, the guardianship of his history, the
emulation of his virtues, the perpetuation of those principles he loved
and which made him glorious and which you also cherish. Remember,
it is your duty to see that the true history of the South is presented to
future generations."
— Stephen Dill Lee, Lt. Gen., CSA

The citizen-soldiers who fought for the Confederacy personified the best qualities of America. The preservation of liberty and freedom was the motivating factor in the South's decision to fight the Second American Revolution. The tenacity with which Confederate soldiers fought underscored their belief in the rights guaranteed by the Constitution. These attributes are the underpinning of our democratic society and represent the foundation on which this nation was built.

Today, the Sons of Confederate Veterans is preserving the history and legacy of these heroes, so future generations can understand the motives that animated the Southern Cause.
The SCV works in conjunction with other historical groups to preserve Confederate history. However, it is not affiliated with any organization other than the Military Order of the Stars and Bars, composed of male descendants of the Southern officer corps. The SCV rejects any group whose actions tarnish or distort the image of the Confederate soldier or his reasons for fighting.
Membership in the Sons of Confederate Veterans is open to all male descendants of any veteran who served
honorably in the Confederate armed forces or government.
