When we view the American flag, we think of liberty, freedom and pride. This category contains graphics, flag etiquette and the history of American, Union and state flags dating back to the Revolutionary War. The American flag stands silently on the moon, waves proudly atop Mount Everest and moves further into the unknown of outer-space. This flag is how America signs her name.
