Regimental Colors of the 3rd Regiment United States Colored Troops

During the Civil War, African Americans played a key role in giving the Union Army a numerical advantage over the Confederacy.  Recruitment of African Americans began earnestly after President Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1, 1863, which freed enslaved persons in the Confederacy. Shortly thereafter, in May 1863 the War Department issued General Order 143, establishing the Bureau of U.S. Colored Troops to facilitate the recruitment and organization of African Americans in the Union Army.  Camp William Penn was established in the summer of 1863 in Cheltenham, Pennsylvania as one of several U.S. Army training camps for African American soldiers.[1]

Seen below is a letter written by Lieutenant Colonel Louis Wagner, post commander of Camp William Penn to Colonel Benjamin C. Tilghman, Commanding Officer of the 3rd Regiment U.S. Colored Troops, dated November 25, 1863. [2]  Wagner wrote to notify Tilghman he had recently received a regimental flag at a public meeting in Philadelphia, which he described as, “a magnificent banner, regulation size, of fine blue silk, with coat of arms of U.S. and name of regiment on one side,” and, “a painting, finely executed, of the goddess of liberty presenting a flag to a color- and colored- sergeant on the other side.” Wagner sought guidance on how and where to deliver the flag, as the 3rd U.S. Colored Troops was stationed at Fort Wagner, Morris Island, South Carolina. The Regimental Flag of the 3rd Regiment, U.S. Colored Troops can be seen below in photographs of the original banner in the holdings of the Library of Congress.[3],[4]
