Sadly, if we lowered our flags for every soldier death, it would be in a perpetual state of half mast.

The NJ flag was lowered in June to honor musician Clarence Clemons, a member of Bruce Springsteen’s E Street band. And, as someone, mentioned it was done for Frank Sinatra.

Where you similarly outraged?


Was Frank Sinatra a drug addict?


Nah...just mob ties.

NP.
Only New Jersey as far as I can find.

They keep saying "flags" though. Plural. Are they lowering all state flags? or state and national flags?

I know NJ is.


So, not a few, just one. And the one that she was born and raised in....


Texas and a few more. . .


Link? I see the info on New Jersey, but not Texas "and a few more".
