Flag Steward, reinforcing its claim of the most accurate and comprehensive half-staffs listing, is the only site and/or app to honor the half-staff order in Louisiana, as well as, Los Angeles and Kern County in California. Flags Express, Flag Notify, Colonial Flag app, and Legacy all are missing these half-staffs.

Today is National Aviation Day
On this date, August 19th, in 1871, Orville Wright, of the famous aviation pioneer duo, Orville and Wilbur Wright, was born in Dayton, Ohio. Orville and his brother invented, built, and flew the world's first airplane. The Wright brothers were also the first to invent aircraft controls that made fixed-wing powered flight possible.
