Flag Day Saturday

Saturday is Flag Day in the United States, so don't forget to fly Old Glory in recognition. The day commemorates the adoption of the flag of the United States, which happened on June 14, 1777, by resolution of the Second Continental Congress.

The U.S. Army also celebrates the Army Birthday on this date; Congress adopted "the American continental army" after reaching a consensus position in the Committee of the Whole on June 14, 1775.
