                By the President of the United States of America

                A Proclamation

                As a mark of respect for the victims of the Indian 
                Ocean Earthquake and the resulting Tsunamis, I hereby 
                order, by the authority vested in me by the 
                Constitution and laws of the United States of America, 
                that the flag of the United States shall be flown at 
                half-staff at the White House and on 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 
                from Monday, January 3, 2005, until sunset, Friday, 
                January 7, 2005. I also direct that the flag shall be 
                flown at half-staff for the same period at all United 
                States embassies, legations, consular offices, and 
                other facilities abroad, including all military 
                facilities and naval vessels and stations.

                IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this 
                first day of January, in the year of our Lord two 
                thousand five, and of the Independence of the United 
                States of America the two hundred and twenty-ninth.

                    (Presidential Sig.)B
