                Proclamation 9369 of November 15, 2015

                
Honoring the Victims of the Attack in Paris, 
                France

                By the President of the United States of America

                A Proclamation

                The American people stand with the people of France. 
                Friday's terror attacks were not just an attack on 
                Paris; they were an attack on all humanity and the 
                universal values we share, including the bonds of 
                libert[eacute], [eacute]galit[eacute], and 
                fraternit[eacute]. These values will endure far beyond 
                any terrorists or their hateful vision. The United 
                States and our allies do not give in to fear, nor will 
                we be divided, nor will anyone change our way of life. 
                We will do whatever it takes, working with nations and 
                peoples around the world, to bring the perpetrators of 
                these attacks to justice, and to go after terrorists 
                who threaten our people.

                As a mark of respect for the victims of the senseless 
                acts of violence perpetrated on November 13, 2015, in 
                Paris, France, by the authority vested in me as 
                President of the United States by the Constitution and 
                the laws of the United States of America, I hereby 
                order that the flag of the United States shall be flown 
                at half-staff at the White House and upon all public 
                buildings and grounds, at all military posts and naval 
                stations, and on all naval vessels of the Federal 
                Government in the District of Columbia and throughout 
                the United States and its Territories and possessions 
                until sunset, November 19, 2015. I also direct that the 
                flag shall be flown at half-staff for the same length 
                of time at all United States embassies, legations, 
                consular offices, and other facilities abroad, 
                including all military facilities and naval vessels and 
                stations.

                IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this 
                fifteenth day of November, in the year of our Lord two 
                thousand fifteen, and of the Independence of the United 
                States of America the two hundred and fortieth.
                
                
                    (Presidential Sig.)
