Flag Day
14 June 2008
I love our flag. Mine is flying high today. In March of 1959 Alaska joined the Union, then in August of '59, Hawaii became state #50. The 48 star flag needed to become a 49 star flag, and just months later it needed to have 50 stars. Years ago, when I was serving as Primary President, the Eleven-Year-Old Scoutmaster, Blaine Kemsley, would occasionally bring his 48 star flag to Primary. He would talk to the children about flag facts. I just loved that flag. About twenty years ago, I received a package in the mail and a note from Blaine. He wanted me to have his flag. Cool!
