June 14, 2019 - National Flag Day!

242 years ago on June 14, 1777, our United States Continental Congress approved the design of our national flag.  Later in 1916, President Woodrow Wilson signed and issued a Presidential Proclamation declaring June 14th as National Flag Day.  ~Library of Congress
