Proclamation 9408 of March 22, 2016

Honoring the Victims of the Attack in Brussels, Belgium

By the President of the United States of America

A Proclamation

The American people stand with the people of Brussels. We will do
whatever it takes, working with nations and peoples around the world, to
bring the perpetrators of these attacks to justice, and to go after
terrorists who threaten our people.
As a mark of respect for the victims of the senseless acts of violence
perpetrated on March 22, 2016, in Brussels, Belgium, by the authority
vested in me as President of the United States by the Constitution and
the laws of the United States of America, I hereby order that 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, March 26, 2016. I also direct
that the flag shall be flown at half-staff for the same length of time
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 twenty-second day
of March, in the year of our Lord two thousand sixteen, and of the
Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and
fortieth.
