Section 1. All executive branch departments and agencies of the Federal Government shall be closed and their employees excused from duty on Friday, December 26, 2008, the day after Christmas Day, except as provided in section 2 of this order.

Yeah, they don't do those for us civilians, though the jarheads get em all the time. Glad for em too.

I'm just happy I don't have to use any annual leave for that day now
