We agree with you that spreading the word about honoring fallen troops with the visible gesture of flying the flags half-mast is an important act of respect and honor to those who serve -- and to their family who live on after their loss. MSG Casler has corrected an important period of error and is to be commended on many levels. ~LindaVeteranCaregiver Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15796415619763145110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3928120837441845182.post-1341465690647218602012-04-21T13:19:24.619-07:002012-04-21T13:19:24.619-07:00Outstanding writing Linda.

That means the Flag at Jefferson Barracks has not been lowered for any veteran killed on active duty for 5 years. Good to know a wrong has been corrected. Serve our veterans by getting out the word. ALL National Flags are lowered to half staff for a veteran killed while serving on active duty. If a Governor of a state proclaims flags to be lowered, that includes federal property as well.Nicholashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12750796909847651051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3928120837441845182.post-1904465551095136042012-04-20T11:03:12.973-07:002012-04-20T11:03:12.973-07:00Donnie, thank you for your comment.
