[lg] Interesting post. It certainly appears that the Cherokee Braves and the other Indian Nations serving in the CSA did not, in fact, surrender, and are entitled perforce to display their colors to this day.

I believe the Indians were a seperate nation (or nations) and they allied themselves with the CSA but it is probably inaccurate to say they served in the CSA.

I believe sw can speak to this a great deal more authoritatively than I can.

i WISH that there was a SIMPLE yes/no answer to this question, but alas there is NOT!

SOME AIs INDIVIDUALLY served IN the PACSA;some mostly-Indian UNITS served in the PACSA;some ALL-Indian units remained ATTACHED to, but NOT PART OF, the PACSA & SOME UNITS remained under TRIBAL control, throughout the WBTS.

like most things in the WBTS era, there is no simple answer.
