United States Flag Flown Over Capitol
August 3, 2022

Each year, since 1777, the United States has observed June 14 as National Flag Day, as a day set aside to honor America’s “Old Glory.” This year the Veterans organizations in Cocke County got together on the following Saturday, June 18th to honor the flag and dispose of ones that had flown and became worn and tattered. The last time the organization had gotten together to dispose of flags was in 2018, since the scheduled 2020 event was cancelled by the virus I won’t speak of.
