​Reminders from Our Flag
for Sunday, August 26, 2018
NATIONAL WOMEN'S EQUALITY DAY

Today's Star-Spangled Inspiration
... a quote from Senator John McCain III in remembrance of his life ...
"We’re Americans, and we never give up. We never quit. We never hide from history. We make history."

Today's Flag Status  ​
Across the USA, Our Flag flies at HALF-STAFF to honor the life of Senator John McCain III.

The White House's US Flag was lowered to half-staff on Saturday evening.  This signals that, eventhough, no formal proclamation has been posted by the White House yet, protocol is being followed for the death of Senator John McCain III.  Across the USA, until the day of McCain's interment, Our Flag flies at half-mast.
