Did you ever feel like the Jewish version of the father from “My Big Fat Greek Wedding,” gleefully relating how we invented the kimono?

Here’s a bit of Flag Day trivia…

Did you know that Flag Day is, in part, attributed to German-born Jew Benjamin Altheimer?

When a St. Louis minister complained about a foreign-born Jew coming up with a day to honor the flag, Altheimer is reported to have said, “I told that preacher that it wasn’t the first time a Jew had given a Christian an idea or something to think about.”
