In honor of Flag Day

Flag Day is Sunday, June 14.
In the words of President Woodrow Wilson: “Old Glory’ this Flag which we honor and under which we serve is the emblem of our unity, our power, our thoughts and purpose as a nation. It has no other character than that which we give from generation to generation. The choice is ours. It floats in majestic silence above the hosts that execute those choices whether in peace or war. And yet, though silent, it speaks to us – Speaks to us of the past, of the men and women who went before us, and of the records they wrote upon it.”
May God bless our flag and our veterans for their sacrifices to allow us to fly it … proudly.
