History of Flag
* In dieplaying the Hagt of two or more
jtion*. all flag* should be flown from sep
als staffs of the same height and the flags
culd be of approximately equal aiag.
The flag' of the United States
of America is the third oldest
of the national standards of the
world; older than the Union Jack
of Great Britain or the Tricolor
of Franc«.
During th* early day« of the
Revolutionary war a variety of
flags were used by th* different
oolonies and military commands
Late in 1775 a committee of
congress, after consulting with
Washington, in command of the
army at Cambridge, decided up
on the form for a new flag. This:
flag consisted of 13 stripes, red
and white, with the crosses of
St. George and St. Andrew on a
blue field in the canton or union.
The flag was first unfurled by
Washington, January 2, 1776.
During 1776 and 1777 a num
ber of flags with 13 stripes came
into use and the need of a def
inite national emblem was rea
lized. On June 14, 1777, con
gress passed an act stating ‘that
the flag of the 13 United States
shall be 13 stripes, alternate red
and white, that the union be 13
stars, white in a blue field, rep
resenting a new constellation.”
This was the birthday of the
flag as we now know it and
June 14 is now celebrated as
“Flag Day.”
In April, 1818, congress pass
ed an act providing that the flag
should have 13 horizontal
stripes, alternate red and white,
and that the union should dis
play 20 stars, representing the
number of states then in the
Union. It also provided that
on the admission of every new
state to the Union a star should
be added on the following July
4th, and this has been the regu
lation ever since, accounting now
for the 48 stars shown.
