Governor Chris Gregoire has directed flags at all Washington State agency facilities be lowered to half-staff Friday, March 9, 2012, in memory of U. S. Marine Corps Lance Corporal Nickoulas H. Elliott, 21, of Spokane, who died February 22 in a helicopter training accident.
Flags should remain at half-staff until close of business Friday.
Other government entities, citizens and businesses are encouraged to join this recognition.
A memorial for the family is scheduled March 10 at the Tahoma National Cemetery in Kent.
