DESCRIPTION:

Flag Day was created in 1886 by Bernard Cigrand, a school teacher in Wisconsin. He decided to hold a Flag Birthday Party on June 14th, the anniversary of the Stars and Stripes US flag creation in 1777. Cigrand continued to advocate for this day by advertising it in magazines and newspapers. Soon, people from New York and some organizations in Pennsylvania started to follow suit. They began to display flags in various public buildings and homes. Schoolchildren were also given small flags and were encouraged to sing patriotic songs.

On June 14, 1916, President Woodrow Wilson issued a proclamation that there should be a National Flag Day. It was not until August of 1949 that this occasion became official through the signing of the legislation by President Harry Truman, making June 14 National Flag Day.
