FLAG DAY - June 14th


Each year on June 14, we celebrate the birthday of the Stars and Stripes, which came into being on June 14, 1777. At that time, the Second Continental Congress authorized a new flag to symbolize the new Nation, the United States of America. Happy Flag Day!

This photo was taken as a new flag was being raised at the Holocost Memorial Museum in Washington DC on February 25, 2008.
