Flag Stolen From Historic Fort Harker | Wichita News
Description
A historic American flag stolen from Fort Harker in Kansas is sparking a nationwide plea for its return—undersheriff Rory Tillett warns that cameras are everywhere and urges the thief to reconsider. This once-vital military outpost, active from 1866 to 1872, served as a key stop for pioneers and gold seekers along major trails like the Santa Fe and Smoky Hill. Named after Civil War General Charles Garrison Harker, the fort hosted legends like Custer and Wild Bill Hickok and remains a National Historic Landmark. The flag’s disappearance is more than a theft—it’s a loss of heritage, and the call is clear: bring it home.
