Patriotic Postcards

From Memorial Day to Labor Day Americans show their colors. In June, we celebrate Flag Day and in July we celebrate Independence Day. In November on Veterans Day we honor those who served.

We Americans are flag-waving patriotic people at heart.

5

Colorful views of patriotic children help instill a sense of pride in God and country.

6

Who could forget Yankee Doodle?

7

Just a few of the bright and whimsical patriotic postcards made about 100 years ago.
