We just returned from a three week road trip and see that flags in the Villages are at half staff. Since flags are suppose to be lowered only on oder of the President of the United States, I'm wondering what I missed in the news.

Pearl Harbor.... proclamation follows:

NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim December 7, 2008, as National Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day. I encourage all Americans to observe this solemn occasion with appropriate ceremonies and activities. I urge all Federal agencies and interested organizations, groups, and individuals to fly the flag of the United States at half-staff this December 7 in honor of those who died as a result of their service at Pearl Harbor.
