Proclamation 7157 of December 7, 1998

Death of Albert Gore, Sr.

By the President of the United States of America

A Proclamation

Albert Gore, Sr., was the embodiment of everything
public service ought to be. The Nation has lost a great
patriot and a true role model for young people
everywhere.

As a mark of respect for the memory of Albert Gore,
Sr., former Senator from the State of Tennessee, I
hereby order, by the authority vested in me as
President by the Constitution and the laws of the
United States of America, that the flag of the United
States shall be flown at half-staff 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
on Tuesday, December 8, 1998. I also direct that the
flag shall be flown at half-staff on that day 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
seventh day of December, in the year of our Lord
nineteen hundred and ninety-eight, and of the
Independence of the United States of America the two
hundred and twenty-third.
