Re: Flag Day Sunday!
Happy Birthday to the US Army too... 14 June 1775.
Flag Day history from 1861-
To George Morris of Hartford, Conn., it is popularly given the credit of suggesting "Flag Day," the occasion being in honor of the adoption of the American flag on June 14, 1777. The city of Hartford observed the day in 1861, carrying out a program of a patriotic order, praying for the success of the Federal arms and the preservation of the Union.
