United States Flag’s Origin

It was in January 1776 that General George Washington ordered the Union flag to be hoisted above his base on Prospect Hill. Five months later, according to history, Betsy Ross sewed the first American flag. However, the American flag was officially established on June 14, 1777 by an act of the Continental Congress, the Flag Act. In this newly written act it described our first official flag to be made with thirteen stripes alternating red and white. The union was to be thirteen stars, representing the thirteen colonies, white on a blue background representing a new Constellation.

This rich history of our flag and birth of our nation is a history of pride and of perseverance, in the struggle to become an independent country whose ideals were a new concept to the laws of man and his God given rights. Today, our flag has thirteen stripes, seven red and six white. These stripes represent the original thirteen colonies that instigated and fought for the existence of this country of ours. Today, there are 50 stars on a blue background representing the 50 states that make up this country. The Red, White and Blue, so proudly we hail. These colors have meaning to our flag; Red is valor, White is purity and Blue is justice and perseverance.
