Draft:List of instances the U.S. flag has been flown at half-staff

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

According to USAGov, "The American flag flies at half-staff or at half-mast when the country or a state is in mourning. The president, a state governor, or the mayor of the District of Columbia can order flags to fly at half-staff.

In most cases, an American flag flying at half-staff marks one of three observances:

  • The death of a government official, military member, or emergency first responder
  • A national tragedy
  • Memorial Day or another national day of remembrance"
