                As a mark of respect for the memory of William J. 
                Brennan, Jr., former Associate Justice of the Supreme 
                Court of the United States, I hereby order, by the

                United States Code, that the flag of the United States 
                shall be flown at half-staff 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
