Perusing through my old files, I found some crude, early GIFs...It's like opening a time capsule! Feel free to use them.

June 14: Flag Day
June 14 is National Flag Day in the United States, a day to commemorate the adoption of the Stars and Stripes as our flag.
The idea of a special day honoring our flag has been around at least since 1885, when schoolteacher Bernard J. Cigrand held the first celebration of the flag's 108th birthday at Stony Hill School in Wisconsin. Over the years, Mr. Cigrand became an advocate for the recognition of Flag Day, later becoming the president of the American Flag Day Association.
However, it wasn't until 1916 that June 14 was officially proclaimed as Flag Day by President Woodrow Wilson. National Flag Day was later established by an Act of Congress in August, 1949.
On the week of June 14, the U.S. flag will be displayed on all government buildings, and U.S. citizens are encouraged to display the flag as well.
You can print and color your own Stars and Stripes here.
