Even fewer people can tell you its history or some of the basic rules governing flag etiquette. Why are these things important? Because there are not that many things that wea nation of immigrantscan call truly American. To forget such important things about our flag is to forget a part of our own cultureone that is distinctly American. Indeed as President Abraham Lincoln once said. "A country with no regard for its past will do little worth remembering in the future." I have been quite lucky in that my home State of Maryland is one of the richest in the Nation in terms of flag lore.
