Flags to fly at half-staff in honor of Memorial Day


Governor Tom Wolf has ordered the United States and Commonwealth flags at the Capitol Complex and statewide to fly at half-staff in honor of Memorial Day from sunrise to noon on Monday, May 28, 2018.

On this day, America recognizes and honors the men and women of the United States armed forces who died in service to their country.

“On this Memorial Day, we honor and remember the men and women of our armed forces who gave their lives while carrying out their duties to protect and preserve the freedoms, values and well-being of our country,” said Governor Wolf. “We cannot put into words the gratitude and respect we have for these individuals who made the ultimate sacrifice to make the world a safer place for future generations.”

All Pennsylvanians are invited to participate in this tribute.
