This may well work. This site (flagandbanner.com/mlsubscription.asp" rel="nofollow">flagandbanner.com/mlsubscription.asp) has as part of its mailing list a "hast mast notification" list that lets one know both when the flag is to be flown at half mast and when it's to be returned to full mast. This is of course only for national declarations, and I'm not aware of any site that would help with local ones.
I believe that mailing list notifies the purpose in the flags being lowered too, though as I've not been part of it, I'm not entirely certain. Be well. Cheers, sm Sources: flagandbanner.com/mlsubscription.asp" rel="nofollow">flagandbanner.com/mlsubscription.asp .

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
