What this seal means
The circular MAST seal means Mast created this record from an official source and normalized its schedule, scope, and details for easier reference.
Mast interpretation
The official source text included on Idaho’s flag status page reproduces a White House proclamation honoring the memory of Dolly Parton.
The proclamation states that, as a mark of respect for her memory, the President orders the flag of the United States to be flown at half-staff at the White House and upon public buildings and grounds, military posts and naval stations, and naval vessels of the Federal Government.
The source text does not provide a separate end date or interment-based ending in the excerpt provided. It presents the order as a presidential proclamation and does not narrow the scope to Idaho state facilities or Idaho counties or cities.
Because the source text is a broad current-status notice that quotes the federal proclamation, the event should be treated as a half-staff order covering the federal locations named in the proclamation text.
The title, summary, or detailed analysis was prepared with AI assistance.
