Old Glory


 

Good afternoon and Happy July!

Today let's chat about our flag. 
Some call it "Old Glory."

The information below is from the 
National Flag Foundation:

The current flag is the only one to 
have lasted for more than 50 years

There have been 27 versions of the 
American flag each with a different 
amount of stars.

As we know there are:
50 stars representing each state
13 stripes representing the original
13 colonies that became the first 
states in the Union.
History states that the colors of the 
flag represent:
RED--hardiness and valor
WHITE--purity and innocence
BLUE--vigilance, perseverance and 
justice


The flag always flies at the top of a 
staff above any other staff.


After a tragedy the flag is flown at 
"half staff" on land and "half mast" 
on a ship. This occurs for 30 days of 
mourning.

We have all been to a funeral at one 
time in our lives and I am sure you 
have noticed that if there is a flag, 
it is folded a specific way.
Correct? 
Military.com gives a great explanation 
of  the Meaning Behind the 13 Folds of 
the Flag. Most of this I did not know.

There is so much more that can be 
posted on Old Glory, so if you are 
interested ask your friend GOOGLE 
for assistance.

One way or the other my flags WILL 
get outside-hopefully the rain is 
FINISHED!!
