Washington Office of the Governor announcement.
Governor Inslee hereby directs that Washington State and United States flags at all state agency facilities remain at half-staff on Wednesday, December 7, 2022, for National Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day. National Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day was created by Congress in 1994 in honor of those Americans killed or injured as a result of the attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941.
Flags should remain at half-staff until close of business or sunset on Wednesday, December 7, 2022.
Other government entities, citizens and businesses are encouraged to join this recognition.
I remember that day very well. It is not mentioned very much on the news these days, so thank you for your article.
