Flag Day gives us a chance to pause and appreciate the history behind the Stars and Stripes. As a family‑owned insurance agency rooted in the Brick NJ community, we love honoring traditions that bring people together.
Here are a few Flag Day facts we enjoy sharing:
• The current 50‑star design was created by a 17‑year‑old student in 1958 and selected by President Eisenhower from thousands of submissions.
• There have been 27 official versions of the flag, most updated as new states joined the Union.
• Red, white, and blue were chosen with intention—symbolizing valor, purity, and justice.
• Six American flags have been placed on the moon during the Apollo missions.
• Today’s design has lasted longer than any other, unchanged since Hawaii became a state in 1959.
We hope your Flag Day is filled with pride, reflection, and a deep appreciation for the history that connects us all. 🇺🇸
