SALUTING OF THE UNITED STATES FLAG BY MILITARY PERSONNEL AND VETERANS
All military personnel and military veterans should know the proper manner to salute the United States flag.
Title 4, United States Code, Section 9 explains the proper manner to salute the United States flag.
All persons present in uniform should render the military salute. Members of the Armed Forces and veterans who are present but not in uniform may render the military salute when the individual is not wearing a hat. All other persons present should face the flag and stand at attention with his or her right hand over the heart, or if applicable, remove his or her hat with the right hand and hold the hat at the left shoulder with the hand being over the heart.
