That's interesting, because I read an
article on this controversy the other day and they gave a date like 1942 or 1948
for the pledge.

in 1893 on Columbus Day.
The original Pledge was as
follows:
'I pledge allegiance to my Flag and (to*) the Republic for which it stands,
one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.'
In 1924, the words "my flag"
were changed to "the flag of the United States of America".
