NEW CITY – Rockland County Executive Edwin Day Friday ordered county flags to be flown at half-staff beginning Monday, July 20 in honor of the four U.S. Marines killed on Thursday in Chattanooga, Tennessee.
Flags on all county facilities will remain lowered until each of the slain marines is interred.
“The senseless violence that occurred in Tennessee is only made worse by the fact that the brave individuals whose lives were taken answered the call to serve and protect our nation,” Day said.
He is also urging towns and villages in Rockland to display their flags at half-staff to honor the service members killed.
