The flag stands for freedom and represents all Americans. It is a beacon of hope to live in a prosperous nation where we are United as One Nation Under God! The flag has been through our greatest victories, but with it comes a cost of our men and women in the Armed Forces. Lots of blood has been shed so Old Glory can fly high and proud!

Flag Day, Symbolism of the Flag

The U.S. flag is the most widely used symbol of America, representing the many freedoms and rights guaranteed to us by the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights.

Additionally, the flag symbolizes the patriotism, honor and courage of all of you, our U.S. Veterans and military personnel, along with our individual liberties stated in the Declaration of Independence. Many other powerful meanings that define America are represented in our flag as well.

"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 Liberty." - George Washington
