Governor Walz Orders Flags to Fly at Half-Staff to Honor Sergeant Cade Michael Wolfe
Governor Tim Walz has ordered all United States and Minnesota flags to fly at half-staff at all state buildings in the State of Minnesota from sunrise until sunset on Friday, January 5, in honor of Sergeant Cade Michael Wolfe’s memorial. Sgt. Wolfe, a Mankato native, was killed in an aircraft crash during a training exercise over the Mediterranean Sea in November.
“Minnesota is deeply saddened by the loss of Sgt. Cade Michael Wolfe, a Minnesotan who dedicated himself to selflessly serving our nation and keeping our country safe,” said Governor Walz. “With deep gratitude, Minnesota recognizes Sgt. Cade Michael Wolfe for his dedicated service to, and sacrifice for, his state and country. His family, loved ones, and community are in our prayers.”
Individuals, businesses, and other organizations are also encouraged to join in lowering their flags.
