When I was in the Army, we were shown a film about military courtesy. The film pointed out that when in uniform and greeting a lady, one should not tip one's hat (huh?), but rather one should "execute a hand salute." I remember the guys in the audience chuckling.
I feel sorry for the Marines who have to salute either one of those grifters. -

The salute by a military member is an expression of courtesy, and is usually rendered as part of a greeting in situations where the member wishes to show respect.
This is done in the same circumstances, and for the same reasons, as when a member would call a civilian "sir" or "ma'am."
To not do so, regardless of the reason, would be petty and churlish.

I'm thinking, in a more polite society, she's stop, tell him hello and thank him for his service to the United States. Otherwise, be courteous, instead of an arrogant wart on the ass of progress.

I used to hate saluting the wives of officers just because they had the blue sticker on the windshield.

JLW III, I know. It was far too quite over the top. I noticed that and not even Rodgie's observation because after the first couple sentences I was off hurling.
