According to several contemporary accounts there were witnesses, including Pulaski's aide-de-camp, that Pulaski received a symbolic burial in Charleston on October 21, sometime after he was buried at sea.
Számos kortárs beszámoló szerint tanúk voltak, köztük Pulaski táborozói is, hogy Pulaski október 21-én Charlestonban szimbolikus temetést kapott, miután a tengeren temették el.
