- CPCynthia PrescottAug 1, 20251.0I was so disappointed that the only place not flying their flag at half staff was the Plainville Post Office to honor the fallen firefighter who died this week. They even flew them half staff in Southington. What is wrong with USPS in Plainville??? We need to honor these people.
