Not only is it Flag Day here in the United States, but it’s also the 235th birthday of the United States Army!
In case you’re not sure what Flag Day is, June 14 commemorates the adoption of our flag by the Second Continental Congress in 1777.
While not a federal holiday, Flag Day was officially established in 1916 by President Woodrow Wilson. National Flag Day was then established by an Act of Congress in 1949.
Fly your flags high today America, and pay tribute to all those fighting for it!

Well, my day was going swell till I read the history of Flag day..Commemorated by Woodrow Wilson, great. At least he didn’t create segregation day to follow flag day.
I would send in flags for flag day but ours are at half mast today…Sad day today here.
So sorry to hear that JeanPaul. Stay strong brother, and watch your six.
