PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE
The Pledge of Allegiance is a solemn promise of loyalty to the United States of America:

It reads:

“I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America


and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God,
indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.”
Francis Bellamy probably wrote the original pledge, though some scholars
believe James b. Upham wrote the pledge. Both men were from Boston
and worked for the magazine, the Youth’s Companion. The National
Flag Conferences of the American Legion expanded the original wording
in 1923 and 1924. In 1942, Congress made the pledge part of its code
for use with the American Flag.

Public school children first recited the pledge as they saluted the flag during the
National School Celebration in 1892 to mark the 400 th anniversary of the discovery of
America.
