28th Massachusetts Infantry Regiment (Irish Brigade) – American Civil War Nylon Series Reproduction Flag

A Banner Honoring the 28th Massachusetts Irish Brigade

This 3′×5′ reproduction flag honors the 28th Massachusetts Infantry Regiment, a proud Irish-American unit raised in Boston in 1861. The regiment marched under the Irish Brigade and earned a fierce reputation for courage. Moreover, the flag embodies that spirit with rich color and bold symbolism. It also reflects the City of Boston’s presentation to its volunteers. Together, these features celebrate duty, faith, and service to the Union.

Authentic Design and Symbolism

At the center, three golden roundels shine beneath radiant beams. The middle medallion carries an American eagle and the motto “E Pluribus Unum.” To the left, the Boston city seal reads “Bostonia Condita A.D. 1630” with the plea “Sicut Patribus Sit Deus Nobis.” To the right, the Massachusetts seal encircles the phrase “Ense Petit Placidam Sub Libertate Quietem,” meaning “By the sword we seek peace, but peace only under liberty.” Additionally, red scrolls announce “28th Regiment Massachusetts Volunteers.” Border ribbons mark Antietam, Fredericksburg, and Sharpsburg, linking the banner to the regiment’s hard-won honors.
