saluting

Hate to bring this topic back up.  Just reading "A New Officer's Guide to Etiquette and Decorum, (or how to avoid embarrassing yourself in public!)" that is given to AFROTC Cadets.

When Not to Salute

In a few situations, the salute is NOT appropriate.  The occassions when you do not salute are:

...

- When you are the drive of a moving vehicle.  However, when practical, you should return the salutes to others.  Thus you will often see other officers return the salute of the security forces member while drive through the gate of an installation."

- When the senior officer in a vehicle salutes and you are junior.
