About the Gadsden “Don’t Tread On Me” Flag
Designed by Colonel Christopher Gadsden of South Carolina in 1775, this flag was adopted by the Continental Marines as one of the earliest banners of the Revolution. The rattlesnake was chosen as a symbol of vigilance and courage — warning enemies not to provoke American freedom.
Today, the Gadsden Flag stands as a proud emblem of patriotism, independence, and American spirit — flown by veterans, riders, and citizens who value liberty above all.
