I recently received a message and then several more asking for guidance as a veteran on when to salute. So, here is the information.
The Military Hand Salute
Information for the military, veterans, and cadets on how to salute and when.
The Guidon’s Two Different Salutes
While each service (Army, MC/Navy/CG and AF/SF) has a slightly different way of having the guidon render a salute while in formation, there is another salute rendered by a guidon that each service requires when outside of a formation when the guidon bearer is on his/her own.
