Creed H. Boucher

Creed Haymond Boucher (March 3, 1888 - January 7, 1964) was a Lieutenant Commander in the United States Navy who served as second in command under Governor Warren Terhune at Naval Station Tutuila in American Sāmoa. During his tenure in 1920, he aligned with the Mau movement and challenged the Governor's authority—actions that led to his court-martial and eventual dismissal from the Navy. The court found that Boucher's involvement with the Mau movement had influenced unrest among the Samoans, prompting Secretary Josephus Daniels to warn that his conduct might have led to an insurrection.
