“We take the stars from heaven, the red from our mother country, separating it by white stripes, thus showing that we have separated from her, and the white stripes shall go down to posterity, representing our liberty.”
When I was in 6th grade, my very last day as a 6th grader, because I was moving to junior high school at the end of the summer, we had a Flag Day parade, and those of us who played instruments got to march around. I remember that I wore a blue and white striped shirt, with red culottes. Funny how your post made that memory come back!
that is a wonderful quote... happy flag day to you all
