Missouri Governor Mike Kehoe has ordered U.S. and state flags to be flown at half-staff on Saturday, October 11, 2025, from sunrise to sunset, in honor of U.S. Army Chief Warrant Officer Three Andrew “Drew” Gunnison Cully.
Cully, a native of Ozark, Missouri, tragically died on September 17 during a training exercise near Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Washington, alongside three fellow soldiers from the 4th Battalion, 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment (Airborne), known as the Night Stalkers.
“Missourians join Americans from across our nation in mourning four United States Army soldiers who lost their lives in a tragic training accident, including Ozark native Chief Warrant Officer Andrew Cully,” Governor Kehoe said. “We will lower the flags across our state on Saturday as a solemn reminder that Andrew’s service and sacrifice to our nation will never be forgotten. Claudia and I join the family, friends, loved ones, and military brothers and sisters of Chief Warrant Officer Cully in remembering a dedicated and humble American hero.”
Flags will be lowered on the day of Chief Warrant Officer Cully’s funeral.
