The Story Behind the Shirt
Before Congress added two words, a Catholic fraternity was already saying them. In April 1951 the Knights of Columbus had their assemblies say “under God” in the Pledge of Allegiance, and a year later their Supreme Council urged Congress to add the words for the whole nation. On Flag Day, June 14, 1954, President Eisenhower signed the law. From that day, he said, school children would “daily proclaim … the dedication of our nation and our people to the Almighty.”
On the back: a waving American flag on its staff beneath a radiant cross, rays bursting behind, over “One Nation Under God” in tall capitals. On the chest: the original 1765 A Co. mark in our founder's own hand. More patriotic shirts.
Built like a conviction: printed on the Bayside 5100, made in the USA ("From Dirt to Shirt, our products are made right here on American soil since 1995," in Bayside's own words), then printed to order in the USA. See the supply chain. Veteran-owned.
