SUMMARY:Happy Birthday\, Army
DESCRIPTION:When the delegates to the Second Continental Congress convened in Philadelphia on 10 May\, they soon learned that armed men commanded by Ethan Allen and Benedict Arnold had captured the British forts at Ticonderoga and Crown Point on Lake Champlain in New York. The constitutional crisis\, in which Americans sought a redress of grievances from the British king and Parliament\, had become open hostilities. The delegates realized that even though many desired reconciliation\, they would now have to address the new military situation. The Congress took the next step that eventually transformed a local rebellion into a war for independence when it established the Continental Army: the force we know today as the U.S. Army. \nOn 14 June 1775\, Congress “Resolved\, That six companies of expert riflemen\, be immediately raised in Pennsylvania\, two in Maryland\, and two in Virginia… [and] as soon as completed\, shall march and join the army near Boston\, to be there employed as light infantry\, under the command of the chief Officer in that army.” The next day Congress voted to appoint George Washington “to command all the Continental forces” and began laying the foundation for “the American army.” \nSource: U.S. Army Center of Military History

SUMMARY:Flag Day
DESCRIPTION:Flag Day is the American holiday honoring the adoption of the Stars and Stripes on June 14\, 1777\, when the Second Continental Congress resolved: “the flag of the United States be thirteen stripes\, alternate red and white; that the union be thirteen stars\, white in a blue field\, representing a new constellation.” Pushed by advocates like teacher Bernard J. Cigrand starting in 1885\, it became official when President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed it in 1916\, with Congress cementing National Flag Day in 1949.
