The First Official United States Flag: This 13-Star Flag became the Official United States Flag on June14th, 1777 and is the result of the congressional action that took place on that date. Much evidence exists pointing to Congressman Francis Hopkinson as the person responsible for its design.The only President to serve under this flag was George Washington (1789-1797). This Flag was to last for a period of 18 years.

Patio's and airconditioned trailers. What the hell is the Army coming too? When I was in, they would put us in the desert, and make us wear our cold weather gear in 120F temps!! But then again, we were hard!! :sign:

I'll smoke one at 1900 with my bro's in the sand box for sure!

Hehe, yeah yeah....but don't think our patio was given to us.

Tasman, some soldiers, and even some help from us officers built the entire thing from scratch. Nothing but some 2x4s, couple hammers, nails, and a saw.

We hold our daily herf at the UMCP "Unit Made Cigar Patio". And everyone is welcome
