In the June 9-15 edition of Epoch Times, Jeff Minick wrote an article about Flag Day but I believe that he did not tell the whole story. Like my mentor Paul Harvey used to say, “This is the rest of the story.”
Yes, June 14 was officially declared by President Woodrow Wilson as Flag Day. This was after a grassroots movement was started by a teacher by the name of Bernard Cigrand, a teacher in the hamlet of Waubeka, Wisconsin. He taught in a one-room school called Stony Hill School which is preserved in its original condition by the Ozaukee County Historical Society.
