Flag Day is celebrated on June 14. It commemorates the adoption of the U.S. flag we know today. The Second Continental Congress adopted our flag in 1777. In those days, it only carried 13 stars.

On this day, all Americans are encouraged to fly their flags. Today’s Video of the Day features the flying of one big flag. And I mean flying! A skydiver unfurls a huge, 140 lb. flag as he descends. It’s an inspiring sight.
