On this day in history, June 14, 1777, the nation adopted the U.S. flag. Here's more on the history and iterations of the U.S. flag — and what some presidents have said about this symbol of freedom.
The text of the resolution stated "that the flag of the United States shall be of thirteen stripes of alternate red and white, with a union of thirteen stars of white in a blue field, representing the new constellation." In honor of the flag's adoption, June 14 of each year is known as "Flag Day." Many see the flag as the ultimate symbol of pride and patriotism — and of the uniqueness of America.

This flag was first used in battle on Sept. 11, 1777, during the Battle of the Brandywine, said the VA website.
