A PROCLAMATION
As a mark of respect for the victims of gun violence perpetrated on
October 1, 2015, in Roseburg, Oregon, by the authority vested in me
as President of the United States by the Constitution and the laws
of the United States of America, I hereby order that the flag of the
United States shall be flown at half-staff at the White House and
upon all public buildings and grounds, at all military posts and
naval stations, and on all naval vessels of the Federal Government
in the District of Columbia and throughout the United States and its
Territories and possessions until sunset, October 6, 2015. I also
direct that the flag shall be flown at half-staff for the same
length of time at all United States embassies, legations, consular
offices, and other facilities abroad, including all military
facilities and naval vessels and stations.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this second day of
October, in the year of our Lord two thousand fifteen, and of the
Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and
fortieth.
