Governor Phil Murphy today ordered that U.S. and New Jersey flags remain at half-staff at all state buildings and facilities on Friday, February 11, 2022 to honor U.S. Navy Seaman Kyle Mullen. Seaman Mullen was a resident of Manalapan Township, New Jersey and passed away last week after Navy SEAL training exercises in San Diego, California.

“Seaman Mullen was a beloved son, friend, teammate, and servicemember whose presence will be sorely missed by everyone who knew him, and by the people of New Jersey,” said Governor Murphy. “He represented the very best of our state and country. Our thoughts and prayers are with Seaman Mullen’s family during this painful time.”
