the AP/Yahoo image illustrates Obama standing amongst saluting veterans while this CiC does not salute, instead he has his right hand on his chest (the man has no heart).
As the current CiC, standing among the few surviving veterans and family of that era, shouldn't he also be saluting? Or is this just another example of how an administration dramatically short on military protocol & experience - just par for the course?
The President has more experts on etiquette than you can shake a stick at. I’ve no doubt he’s not supposed to salute. It’s when he breaks from etiquette that it stands out (see his odd fixation with bowing to people).
