Thank you President Harry Truman for signing Flag Day into law in August 1949. The seeds of flag day go back to June 14, 1777 when the Continental Congress replaced the British flag with the first American flag displaying 13 stars for the new states.
The courage of the Continental Congress should be appreciated daily by all Americans.

There will be some sad chapters written about this era 50 years from now by unbiased historians.
