Flag Day is a holiday in the United States which celebrates the adoption of the American flag. The holiday is celebrated around the country with parades and memorial services for those who have died in defense of the United States. Like Memorial Day, Flag Day is considered a patriotic holiday, and is particularly celebrated by the Armed Forces and those veterans who have served abroad.
(To this day the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania is the only state where Flag Day is a legal holiday, though it is observed in all 50 states as a day of honoring our Flag.) The following year (1894) 300,000 school children participated in Flag Day celebrations promoted by the Illinois American Flag Day Association.
