Fort Moultrie Flag Meaning & History
The Fort Moultrie flag was first created in 1775 by Colonel William Moultrie. It was displayed over Fort Sullivan when the British attacked on June 28, 1776, and began a 10-hour siege. The flag was shot down during the battle, but Sergeant William Jasper bravely entered the open battlefield to retrieve it.
The crescent symbol was taken from the uniforms of Moultrie’s regiments, which featured a silver crescent on their hats.
