' U. S. A. Flag Day ' !
- USA Flag Day -
On June 14th, 1891, the Betsy Ross House in Philadelphia, Pa. held a Flag Day celebration. On June 14th.1892, the New York Society of the Sons of the Revolution, celebrated Flag Day. Flag Day - the anniversary of the Flag Resolution of 1777 - was officially established by the Proclamation of President Woodrow Wilson on May 30th, 1916. Flag Day is not an official federal holiday, though on June 14th., 1937, Pennsylvania became the first (and only) U.S. state to celebrate Flag Day as a state holiday. On August 3rd, 1949, President Harry Truman signed an Act of Congress designating June 14th. of each year as "National Flag Day."
Happy Flag Day!

I HAVE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL FLAG IN MY CLOSET BUT NOTHING TO HANG IT ON. MY HUSBAND PROMISED LAST YEAR, TO GET THE HANGER UP TO PUT OUT THE FLAG. IT NEVER GOT DONE. I GUESS I WILL HAVE TO GET OUT A LADDER - LEG BRACE AND ALL - AND DO IT MYSELF.
That was pretty cool, wish we had somewhere to hang a flaf on the RV, lol.
Our flag has held strong for many years. I am proud of what it stands for.
Love, Angela
