This Day in History: Origins of the Flag Code

On or around this day in 1942, the United States Congress considers amendments to the United States Flag Code. Did you know that the first Flag Code wasn’t written until 1923? Or do you know why it provides for us to stand and put our hands over our hearts? Or how the tradition of flying the flag at half-staff got started in the first place?

Believe it or not, the latter custom can be traced back to the 1600s.

The first recorded instance of a flag being flown at half-mast occurred in 1612. The story continues here: https://www.taraross.com/post/tdih-flag-code

A memory from one of my relationships-

Me: *Has a drawing with a character that's wearing a red shirt and blue jeans* What do you think?

Boyfriend at the time: Red and blue don't go together

What I said: Okay?

What I wanted so badly to say: TELL THAT TO THESE HEROES AND THE STATES THAT YOU LIVE IN

Happy 4th of July!!
