National Loyalty Day
National Loyalty Day commemorates American independence and is set aside for the reaffirmation of loyalty to the United States and the recognition of American freedom's roots on May 1st.
Every president since 1955 has set the date for May 1st. Each of them, whether they want Americans to raise the flags, pray, or reflect on their roots, they all agree that the country must be united in our basic ideals. Both veterans and freedom are represented in equal measure, particularly those who serve in the military. Although the messages may differ on certain topics, the main messages remain the same.
