Governor asks for Wyoming flags to fly at half-mast
By dahlerickson on Nov 6, 2009 in News
In the wake of the shootings at Fort Hood, Texas, flags should immediately be adjusted to half mast.
Governor Dave Freudenthal requests that flags be flown at half-staff beginning immediately until sunset, Tuesday, November 10, 2009.
President Barack Obama has issued a proclamation which calls for the flags to be flown at half-staff as a mark of respect honoring the victims of the tragedy at Fort Hood, Texas.
The proclamation may be viewed on line at http://www.whitehouse.gov/blog.

I know this was a horrible thing to happen but what message does this send to the families of soldiers who die in foreign lands defending our beliefs? If your going to fly a flag at half mast for the men and women that died at Fort Hood shouldn’t all fallen soldiers receive the same respect but yet it is not so. Hardly fair!!
