🇺🇸Full-Staff Flags: Effective 12/18 (Sun)

[ Edited ]

As a mark of respect for the memory of John Glenn, I hereby order,

by the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws

of the United States of America, that the flag of the United States

shall be flown at half-staff at the White House and upon all public

buildings and grounds, at all military posts and naval stations,

and on all naval vessels of the Federal Government in the District of

Columbia and throughout the United States and its Territories and

possessions until sunset, on the day of interment.

 

I also direct that the flag shall be flown at half-staff for the same period at all United States embassies, legations, consular offices, and other facilities abroad, including all military facilities and naval vessels and stations.

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this ninth day of

December, in the year of our Lord two thousand sixteen, and of the

Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and

forty-first.

 

President of the United States
