Flags Fly at Half-Staff in Honor of National Guardsman Brandon Cavanaugh

U.S. and Michigan flags are flying at half-staff Friday in honor of National Guardsman Brandon Cavanaugh.

Cavanaugh was a sergeant in the Michigan National Guard.

He died on April 13.

Cavanaugh served two tours in Iraq in 2006 and 2008.

A service will be held in his honor Saturday in Bay City.

Flags should be returned to full-staff on Saturday.

His daughter, Brandy, says she hopes people will be inspired by her father and everything he has done for the world.
