A moment of silence will be observed at ports of entry. This is part of a commemoration that will cause brief closures. Drivers can expect delays of about 30 minutes or less.
Taps will be played during the ceremony. A flag raising will also take place.
Further details are available from U.S. Customs and Border Protection. They have announced that several border crossings will be affected by the closures, which are scheduled to take place on Friday morning.
