Last week our first cadet attended a summer training. CPO Turbeville departed @ 0630 the morning after school got out for the United States Naval Academy’s summer seminar. They tested his mind, body, and spirit, but all the training he has received in The U.S. Naval Sea Cadet Corps had him prepared! 💪 He still has a lot to do to get there , but he will continue to work hard and improve like all of our cadets. So as they say when you leave “We hope to see you again soon”! 1 down 23 more trainings to go.🫡🇺🇸 .S. Naval Academy Admissions for Greatness Inc

Don’t forget the Florida flag.

Today is Flag Day!
The current design of Florida's state flag was adopted in 1900. Because when furled, the flag lacked color, the 1899 Legislature voted to place a constitutional amendment on the ballot to update the flag. Florida voters approved the change adding the diagonal red bars.

Happy Flag Day!🤔🫡🇺🇸

As Flag day is June 14th, it is interesting to note historically that President Wilson, in 1916, and President Coolidge, in 1927, issued proclamations asking for June 14 to be observed as the National Flag Day. Though it wasn't until August 3, 1949, that Congress approved the national observance, and President Harry Truman signed it into law.
In the United States, Flag Day is celebrated on June 14. It commemorates the adoption of the flag of the United States on June 14, 1777 by resolution of the Second Continental Congress. The Flag Resolution, passed on June 14, 1777, stated: "Resolved, That the flag of the thirteen United States be thirteen stripes, alternate red and white; that the union be thirteen stars, white in a blue field, representing a new constellation." This design was created by Francis Hopkinson, a Continental Congressman from New Jersey and a consultant to the design of the Great Seal of the United States
In 1916, President Woodrow Wilson issued a proclamation that officially established June 14 as Flag Day; on August 3, 1949, National Flag Day was established by an Act of Congress. Flag Day is not an official federal holiday. Title 36 of the United States Code, Subtitle I, Part A, CHAPTER 1, § 110 is the official statute on Flag Day; however, it is at the president's discretion to officially proclaim the observance. On June 14, 1937, Pennsylvania became the first U.S. state to celebrate Flag Day as a state holiday, beginning in the town of Rennerdale. New York Statutes designate the second Sunday in June as Flag Day, a state holiday.
