Episode Details

President Trump orders flags flown at half-staff for National Peace Officers Memorial Day, honoring fallen and disabled officers. This tradition, started by JFK, involves a week of tributes and ceremonies in D.C. Half-staff is the term for land-based flags, symbolizing sacrifice and risk. Flags also drop for national days like Memorial Day and Firefighters Memorial Day, with presidents having the power to call for it after significant losses. In Arizona, governors order state flags at half-staff for public buildings following deaths of elected officials or active-duty military.
