On which day is the flag displayed at half-staff from 0800-1200?

The flag is displayed at half-staff on Memorial Day from 0800 to 1200 as a mark of respect for the men and women who have died while serving in the United States Armed Forces. This observance allows Americans to honor and remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country. The practice is a part of the formal observance of the holiday, which is intended to instill a sense of gratitude and reflection on the sacrifices made by service members.

Veterans Day is another important day of remembrance for those who served, but it does not typically involve half-staff display during the specified hours. Independence Day and Flag Day do not have the same somber significance and do not warrant the flag being flown at half-staff to the same extent as Memorial Day.
