From Grand Canyon National Park:
Happy #FlagDay from #GrandCanyon Were you here in the park today? Care to share your experiences?
In the United States, Flag Day is celebrated on June 14. It commemorates the adoption of the flag of the United States, which happened on June 14, 1777 by a resolution of the Second Continental Congress. In 1916, President Woodrow Wilson issued a proclamation that officially established June 14 as Flag Day, and in August 1949, National Flag Day was established by an Act of Congress. (Flag Day is not an official federal holiday.) -mq
