How do you get the calendar in alarm app to show Sunday as 1st day of the week, as American calendars are set up, instead of Monday as first day of the week?

Are you referring to the big calendar or the days

Make sure your language is set to English United States

I believe the alarm app is informed by the calendar settings, so the first day of the week would be what you set it as in calendar.  Open Samsung Calendar, tap the line menu on the top left.  Tap the settings gear.  Under "first day of the week", it should say local default.  If you are not U.S. based, tap that section and choose which day of the week you want as the default.  Your alarm calendar should change accordingly.  You may have to reboot for the settings to take effect.  I could be wrong about all of this, as my calendars are set for Sunday as the first day of the week and the alarms are as well.  it might just be the alarm calendar day settings are region locked to where you are.  It truly only matters for the calendar, though; as when you set alarms, you either set them for particular days, every day, or weekdays.  Regardless of which day is the first day of the week, weekends are always Saturday & Sunday worldwide.

I tried changing the Calendar's start day, but it didn't affect the calendar. The only way I could change the Alarm's start day was by changing the System Language to English United States.  In the UK and some other countries the First day of the Week is Monday
