Death of Arlen Specter

                By the President of the United States of America

                A Proclamation

                As a mark of respect for the memory of Arlen Specter, I 
                hereby order, by the authority vested in me by the 
                Constitution and laws of the United States of America, 
                that on the day of his interment, the flag of the 
                United States shall be flown at half-staff at the White 
                House and 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 such day. 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 
                fifteenth day of October, in the year of our Lord two 
                thousand twelve, and of the Independence of the United 
                States of America the two hundred and thirty-seventh.
                
                
                    (Presidential Sig.)
