Flags at Half-Staff for Patriot Day

Saturday, September 11th, 2021 marks the 20-year anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center in New York City, the Pentagon, and United Airlines Flight 93 which crashed in suburban Pennsylvania.  Congress designated 9/11 as “Patriot Day” and directed that all flags be lowered to half-staff for the entire day in honor of individuals who lost their lives on that tragic September morning.
