Governor Chris Gregoire has directed that flags at all Washington State agency facilities be lowered to half-staff Monday, November 9, in memory of U. S. Army Chief Warrant Officer 4 Michael P. Montgomery, 36 and a native of Redmond, who died last week in Afghanistan of injuries sustained when his helicopter crashed. Flags should remain at half-staff until close of business Monday, or first thing Tuesday morning. Other government entities, citizens and businesses are encouraged to join this recognition.
