Flag Day is a day dedicated to celebrating and honoring the national flag of a country. In the United States, Flag Day is observed on June 14 each year. This date commemorates the adoption of the Stars and Stripes as the official flag of the United States by the Second Continental Congress on June 14, 1777. Here are some key points about Flag Day in the United States: History: Flag Day was officially established by President Woodrow Wilson on May 30, 1916, though it wasn't until August 3, 1949, that President Harry S. Truman signed an Act of Congress designating June 14 as National Flag Day. Observances: While Flag Day is not a federal holiday, it is a state holiday in Pennsylvania. People across the country celebrate by displaying the flag, holding parades, and participating in ceremonies. Schools and organizations often hold educational activities about the history and significance of the flag. Significance: The day serves to promote patriotism and a sense of national unity. It is an opportunity to reflect on the values and history of the United States. Flag Etiquette: On Flag Day, many take the time to learn or review the rules of flag etiquette, including how to display and handle the flag properly. Flag Day is a symbol of national pride and serves as a reminder of the country's heritage and the values the flag represents. #FlagDay #Patriotism #NationalPride
