Banners of all kinds, including championship and school banners, and flags have been used by people(s), nations and organizations for purposes of identification as well as signaling in times of old and in our day. Commercial and residential flagpoles and other objects are used to display banners and flags. The South Carolina flag, for example, is a flag that has been flown from a flag pole for decades!
During the 60-s of the 18th century, a group of opponents met together to voice objection, behind a blue flag, which showed 3 white crescents. Some years later, a certain William Moultrie was asked to produce a SC flag design for the South Carolina troops. A few decades later the so called "palmetto tree" was added to the banner, which was done on behalf of William's defense of a fortification against the forces of the Kingdom of Great Britain, back in June of '76.
Interestingly, and unlike many other state flags, the South Carolina state flag is considered one of the better designed flags in our day. A survey conducted by NAVA concluded that this flag is the 10th best looking flag in the area of North America. Interestingly, substantial selections of other flags have quite a number of similarities, in terms of flag design.
South Carolina separated from North Carolina back in 1729, and has been the scene of extensive military operation(s) during the American Revolution, and again during the time of the Civil War, which began in 1861 when South Carolina troops fired on a fort called "Sumter," then located in Charleston Harbor. Interestingly, South Carolina was the very first to secede from the Union.
Interestingly, other uses besides the flying of the SC state flag from aluminum flag poles of all kinds include clothing, belts, wallets, and other accessories that feature the palmetto tree as well as the crescent. Banners and flags, including custom made school banners, are produced from high quality materials and made in the United States of America.
