Brief History of the Flag Day Celebration

The flag of the United States was flown in every government building
marking the centennial of the adoption of a national flag.
August 1949 - June 14 was
officially declared Flag Day by President Harry S. Truman. Since then
Flag Day is observed yearly and it is a time when Americans display the
flag in front of their homes, outside office buildings, government
agencies and other establishments.
