Raising_the_Flag_on_Iwo_Jima,_larger_-_edit1.jpg

 

In the words of lyricist/ patriot George M. Cohan:

 

 

You're a grand old flag
You're a high-flying flag
And forever in peace may you wave
You're the emblem of
The land I love
The home of the free and the brave
Ev'ry heart beats true
Under red, white and blue
Where there's never a boast or brag
But should old acquaintance be forgot
Keep your eye on the grand old flag

Thank you for the reminder!  It's raining now, but I'll put my flags out when it stops.

Today is my 47th wedding anniversary.  My husband and I were married on flag day so I will never forget flag day.

@newname0 - Happy Anniversary to you.  I worked as a civilian for the US Navy.  My boss was a Commander who also celebrated his wedding anniversary on June 14, Flag Day.  His reasoning to me was that he married on Flag Day so he would always remember his anniversary.  A little reverse from your not forgetting Flag Day.  He was a wonderful person and I think of him often, especially on Flag Day.

Once again, I'll be wearing the flag pin my dearest father gave me many decades ago.
