Flag Day


Flag Day is different in many parts of the world. It is either a day designated for flying a certain flag or a day to celebrate a historical event such as a nation’s adoption to its flag. Here in the United States we celebrate Flag Day because it commemorates the adoption of the U.S. flag. Flag Day is a day to show respect to our flag. We celebrate Flag Day on June 14. This year it will land on a Monday. Flag Day is not an official federal holiday.
