The
Fourth of July was traditionally
celebrated as America's birthday,
but the idea of an annual day
specifically celebrating the Flag is
believed to have first originated in
1885. BJ Cigrand, a schoolteacher,
arranged for the pupils in the
Fredonia, Wisconsin Public School,
District 6, to observe June 14 (the
108th anniversary of the official
adoption of The Stars and Stripes)
as 'Flag Birthday'.
