Half-Mast in Colors ceremony is described as:

• A. Morning: Hoist to flagpole peak and then lower to half-mast.
• B. Evening: Hoist to flagpole peak and then lower to half-mast.
• C. Morning: Hoist to flagpole peak from half-mast.
• D. Evening: Hoist to flagpole peak from half-mast and then lowered.

Answer: (A)

In Colors, the half-mast display for mourning is done in the morning by first hoisting the flag to the peak of the flagpole, then lowering it to half-mast. This top-then-half sequence is the standard method used to transition to a mourning display, ensuring the flag is fully raised before it is set at half-mast. The other descriptions would imply wrong timing or actions (such as doing this in the evening or starting from half-mast), which don’t fit the established procedure.
