With the cooperation of federal and all 50 state governments, we have the most accurate and timely Half-Staff Alert system available. This is not an inexpensive program to operate. It takes 5 people, on a part-time basis, including weekends and holidays, to make sure we stay accurate. This is a free service for subscribers which is sponsored by American Flags Express. Meet our staff below...
Thomas D'Amico - Director/Subscriber Security
Our Half-Staff Alerts program was started at the request of our American flag customers. With over 220,000 Half-Staff Alert subscribers, accuracy, speed and security are top concerns. We never rent or sell subscriber names. We treat our subscribers the same way we would want to be treated.
Karen Toussaint - Assistant Program Director
Karen is the detail person and backup. She has been part of the program since its inception.
Mike Brenner - Half-Staff Assistant Editor
Newest to our staff since 2018, Mike is our social media guru. Look for his posts on our Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter accounts.
Nicole Loscuito - Half-Staff Researcher
Nicole helps maintain personal ties with Lieut. Governors across the country. This is a time-consuming project, especially during election years.
Abby - Half-Staff Assistant Editor
