Flags throughout the district will fly at half-staff on Saturday, June 21 in memory of Army Cpl. Justin R. Clouse, of Sprague. Clouse died June 9 in southern Afghanistan of injuries sustained during a security operation.

The Governor has requested that flags at all state agency facilities be lowered when a Washingtonian in the military is killed in the line of duty. Flags should remain at half-staff until the end of the day on June 21 or first thing Monday morning, June 23, 2014.
