Flag day is held each year on June 14th commemorating the day the Second Continental Congress authorized the United States of American to adopt a flag to represent the new nation. President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed June 14, 1916, to be a national celebration of the American flag, and the 1949 Congress declared June 14 to be national Flag Day every year.
Flag day an opportunity for everybody to show their patriotism and that we are unified behind a common goal, represented in a physical sense through the U. S. flag and to acknowledge freedom. Let us all unite and fly "Old Glory" everyday of the year and celebrate it's meaning.
