U.S. flags were at half-staff – not half-mast – on May 15, 2018, to honor Peace Officers Memorial Day. I got this photo of the flag at the Collier County government offices near our home in North Naples, Fla. It wasn’t windy, so I didn’t get the flag “flying.” BTW … half-mast is the definition of a flag flying aboard a ship or U.S. Naval stations ashore, while half-staff is on land elsewhere.
