A Proclamation

Our Nation shares the sorrow of those affected by the shooting at the
Capital Gazette newspaper in Annapolis, Maryland. Americans across the
country are united in calling upon God to be with the victims and to
bring aid and comfort to their families and friends. As a mark of solemn
respect for the victims of the terrible act of violence perpetrated on
June 28, 2018, 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, July 3,
2018. 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 third day of July,
in the year of our Lord two thousand eighteen, and of the Independence
of the United States of America the two hundred and forty-second.
DONALD J. TRUMP
