Flags to be lowered to half-staff in observance of Memorial Day
FRANKFORT, Ky. (WTVQ) – Both the American and State Flags will be lowered to half-staff from sunrise until noon on Monday, May 27th, 2019 in observance of Memorial Day.
President Trump proclaimed Memorial Day as “a day of prayer for permanent peace.”
Congress has also designated 3:00 PM, local time, as a time for all Americans to observe, in their own way, the National Moment of Remembrance.
All individuals, businesses, organizations, and government agencies are encouraged to join in this tribute of lowering the flag in honor of all those who have sacrificed their lives in uniform for our Nation.
