Historic Tidbit

Sunday, June 14 is Flag Day, on which we honor the United States of America flag. Flag Day was first designated for observance on June 14, 1895, honoring the date in 1777 when it was declared the official flag of our country.

June 14 also honors the founding of the U.S. Army in 1775, which began as a group of riflemen protecting the Colonies.
