The state flag of South Carolina is dark blue with a white palmetto tree in the center and a crescent in the upper left corner. The crescent is facing diagonally to the upper left of the flag. This crescent is NOT a crescent moon but rather it is based on a "gorget" (badge) that was worn on the hats by the local militia that defended the fort on Sullivan's Island (SC) from British attack in 1776 during the early stages of the Revolutionary War. The fort was one of several that protected the city of Charleston. Colonel William Moultrie led the troops in defending the fort and has been credited with designing the original "Fort Moultrie" flag which had the crescent and the word "LIBERTY" on the flag.

The "gorget" badge was quite common in the 18th century (1700s) worn by troops and officers. It was usually worn like a necklace on a chain or strap loose around the neck. The gorgets served as identification badges much like the badges worn by our police and sheriff deputies today.

The palmetto tree was made famous during the British attack because their cannon balls were absorbed by, or bounced off, the palmetto logs of the fort. They could not destroy the fort. The palmetto tree is now the state tree of South Carolina.

The Union Flag (the flag of the United Kingdom) which came into being on 1 January 1801, added to the above St Patrick's cross, a diagonal red cross on a white background.
