C G P Grey Explains the History of the Union Jack

We seem to be developing a pattern here. If that's what you're thinking, you're probably right. Every day until the Fourth of July, we will feature one of C G P Grey's explanations about things British. If you're not careful, you might learn something(s) you didn't know about America's mother country.

Meanwhile, we should probably find out more about this Grey chap, don't you think?

Or don't you?
