I concur:
We have a 30-foot flagstaff, on which we fly the U.S. flag 24/7 -- with photocell-controlled spotlights on it from dusk to dawn.
My first act upon learning this tragic news was to go outside, salute the flag, lower it to half staff -- and salute it again....holding the salute for the 20 seconds it takes to say the Lord's prayer...
May the Lord keep his hand on the families of those seven heroic people!
