    Fort McCoy displays United States flag at half-staff in honor of former SECDEF

    The United States flag is shown flying at half-staff Jan. 9, 2019, at Fort McCoy, Wis. The half-staffing of the flag was to honor former Secretary of Defense Harold Brown. Brown, the 14th secretary of defense and the first scientist to hold the position, died Jan. 4, 2019, at his home in Ranch Santa Fe, Calif. He was 91. Leading the Defense Department from 1977 to 1981 under President Jimmy Carter, Brown tapped into his experience as Air Force secretary under President Lyndon B. Johnson during the Vietnam War and as director of U.S. Defense Research and Engineering during President John F. Kennedy’s administration. (U.S. Army Photo by Scott T.
