SUMMARY:Flag Day
DESCRIPTION:Flag Day commemorates the adoption of the American flag on June 14\, 1777. The flag is a symbol of national unity\, pride\, and freedom. The observance of Flag Day serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by those who have fought for and defended the flag\, as well as the values and ideals it represents.
