and there are almost as many
circumstances under which he
does not salute. That explains the
numerous lectures on military
courtesy. Even the non-coms are
mt quite sure sometimes.
My bunkmate figures it'll be
two or three years before our
group is sent into combat. "1t'll
take at least that long for us to
learn that military courtesy" he
contends.
Several years ago enlisted men
were required to salute officers
off the post. The army apparently
decided it was rather silly, so the
rule was changed. Then the Uni
ted States went to war and the
rule was again changed. It's get
ting so an officer hates to walk
down a city street.
The general rule is: when in
doubt, salute; it can do no harm.
AS for me, I'm taking no chances.
Being peculiarly allergic to KIP
duty, I salute under any and in
all circumstances.
