FLAGS AT HALF STAFF. The U.S. Postal Service has been advised by the Department of Homeland Security that, in accordance with Presidential Proclamation 3044, the U.S. flag will be flown at half staff due to the death of Pope John Paul II. The flag is to be flown at half staff until the day the Pope is interred, which is undetermined at this time.
