Half staff at the Archives

Flags in Washington were flown at half staff for several days because of the slaughter of 12 people at the Navy Yard by a gunman who had repeatedly slipped through the cracks of the system.

A beautiful photograph to mark such a sad occasion. The flag has been at half staff far too much lately. V

I heard about that and it was so sad on all accounts. A terrific couple of shots, however. V
