Eagles...

Eagles are a special bird. They continue to be important the Native Americans.They became our national emblem on June 20, 1782. They portray a dignity and majesty. At the time, it was thought they only existed on this continent.

The story goes that early in the morning of one of the first battles in our Revolution, all the noise woke up the eagles. They flew out over the battleground, circling and crying out. The US patriots said they were shouting: "Freedom".

You can find them in the Banner Store here.
