Mast interpretation
The directive covers both the flag of the United States of America and the flag of American Samoa. It applies to "all government building, offices, and grounds throughout the Territory" and instructs all American Samoa Government departments, offices, agencies, and instrumentalities to implement the half-staff lowering and return flags to full-staff at the conclusion of the observance.
