Flags at half-staff on October 7, 2018
October 7, 2018 is the National Fallen Firefighter Memorial Service.
On October 16, 2001, President George W. Bush approved legislation requiring the United State flag to be lowered to half-staff on all Federal buildings to memorialize fallen firefighters. Public Law 107-51 requires this action to occur annually in conjunction with observance of the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Service.
It is expected that President Trump will issue a proclamation for October 7th but it wasn’t available at the time of this post.
