June 14th is Flag Day. Fly it with pride. Happy Flag Day 2025

Today is June 14, which has been designated as “Flag Day.” June 14, 1777 is the date that Congress officially adopted our nation’s flag.

The U.S. flag has been modified 26 times since its adoption in 1777. Today's 50-star flag, created in 1960, has been in use the longest. 
 
Are you up to date on flag custom; which days are appropriate to fly your flag? The answer is every day, but there are special days when the flag should be displayed.
 
Please see Military.com for the article Flag Etiquette and the US Flag Code

The U.S. Flag Code is not legally enforceable, but adherence to it is considered a sign of patriotism and respect. The code formalizes and unifies the traditional ways in which we give respect to the U.S. flag, and also gives specific instructions on how the flag is not to be used.
 
Happy Flag Day.
