The American flag has stood as a symbol of freedom, discovery, vision and sacrifice like no other national flag. The present American flag was adopted on July 4, 1960 and displays 50 stars that represent the 50 United States and 13 stripes which pays tribute to our history representing the original 13 colonies. The American flag is honored with a pledge , song and many official regulations about the display and disposal.

Legend tells us that George Washington commissioned Betsy Ross to design and sew our first national flag, which we have come to know as the Betsy Ross flag. However history is not so clear, Washington did command the first use of an official flag, however it was the Grand Union Flag . There is very little supporting documentation on the development or standards used for the creation of the Betsy Ross or first dedicated United States of America flag which was adopted by the United States of America on June 14, 1977. What we do know is the emotion it has invoked throughout history as well as today! Officially adopted by the United States on June 14, 1777. The first flag consisted of 13 white stars in a blue canton, and 13 alternating red and white stripes; thirteen being the number of states in the union at the time of inception. Today’s flag adorns 50 stars in the canton. The American flag was last updated on July 4, 1960.
