On June 14th, Americans recognize Flag Day.\u00a0 Flag Day was first observed in 1877 on our flag's 100th birthday.\u00a0 The day has been observed every year since then. In 1916, Woodrow Wilson responded to popular appeals and made in a nationwide observance.\u00a0 In 1949, Congress resolved “That the 14th day of June of each year is hereby designated as Flag Day.”\u00a0 So fly that flag proudly this June 14th.<\/p>\n
