Happy Birthday to The United States Army!
Flag Day is celebrated by Americans on June 14 each year and commemorates the adoption of the Stars and Stripes as the official flag of the United States.
On June 14, 1777, the Continental Congress passed a resolution defining the colors, configuration, and symbolism of the Stars And Stripes, AKA The American Flag. The text of this resolution as reported by the Department of Veterans Affairs official site includes the following:
โโฆthat the flag of the United States shall be of thirteen stripes of alternate red and white, with a union of thirteen stars of white in a blue field, representing the new constellation.โ
To help us in our mission to end veteran homelessness, please consider a tax-deductible donation to Housing4OurVets:

Women Veterans Day
Annually on June 12 the state of Wisconsin and the WDVA recognizes Women Veterans Day in honor of the signing of the Women's Armed Services Integration Act on June 12, 1948. Women veterans make up 10% of the veteran population in Wisconsin and honoring their service, sacrifice, and dedication to this country is the pinnacle of this day.
American women have served in the military both formally and informally throughout the history of the U.S.

Here is a list of events that are free for Veterans and Military!
On June 6, 1944, Allied soldiers bravely stormed the beaches of Normandy, France. The Normandy beaches were chosen because of the range of air cover, and it was the shortest distance from Great Britain. Five landing beaches were selected for the assault: Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno and Sword beaches.
As dawn broke, the largest armada ever assembled began its assault on the beaches of Normandy. By the end of the day, the Atlantic Wall, (which took the Germans years to build), had fallen and the invasion was a success.
The events of D-Day forged partnerships and reinforced trans-Atlantic bonds that remain strong today.
D-Day will be commemorated on Thursday, June 6, 2024, the 80th anniversary of D-Day also known as the Allied Invasion of Normandy.
