Public Law 103-308, as amended, has designated December 7 of each year as “National
Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day,” and directs that flags be lowered to
half-staff from sunrise to sundown.

“Most of us were not alive when the horrors of the attack on Pearl Harbor unfolded 83
years ago, but it is so important this generation and future generations take
the time to honor the thousands of men and women who lost their lives in that
unprovoked attack on American soil. Idaho will also forever honor the brave
service members who fought for our country and all of humanity during World War
II in the years that followed the attack on Pearl Harbor,” Governor Little said.
