Governor Chris Gregoire has directed that flags at all Washington State agency facilities be lowered to half-staff Wednesday, November 4, in memory of U. S. Army Chief Warrant Officer Three Niall D. Lyons, 40, of Spokane, who died this week in Afghanistan of injuries sustained when his helicopter crashed.
Flags should remain at half-staff until close of business Wednesday, or first thing Thursday morning. Other government entities, citizens and businesses are encouraged to join this recognition.
