I have a LOYALTY that runs in my bloodstream, when I lock into someone or something, you can’t get me away from it because I commit that thoroughly.

LOYALTY cannot be blueprinted. It cannot be produced on an assembly line. In fact, it cannot be manufactured at all, for its origin is the human heart — the center of self-respect and human dignity. It is a force which leaps into being only when conditions are exactly right for it — and it is a force very sensitive to betrayal.– Maurice Franks

The First Salute

Scouter Jim, Bountiful UT

If you can't get them to salute when they should salute and wear the clothes you tell them to wear, how are you going to get them to die for their country?
General George S. Patton

A co-worker of mine had a son graduate from the University and the ROTC program. He had two brothers in the military. One, a commissioned officer was able to swear his brother in as a new officer. The other, a Master Sergeant was the first soldier to give the new officer a salute. It was considered a great honor that the first salute he would receive as a Commissioned Officer was from his brother. I know from the culture of the family that the young man was once a Boy Scout and possibly an Eagle Scout. Most likely he was a Cub Scout before that.

That salute was not his first. He had given many salutes in his training no doubt. As a Boy Scout he would have given Salutes during flag ceremonies. But his first salute was no doubt as a Cub Scout. In a blue shirt with his arm proudly held up and two fingers placed to his forehead or against a Blue and Gold hat . This young officer’s first salute as an American in uniform was probably as a Cub Scout proudly wearing a blue shirt.

As leaders, it is well that we remember that our young Cub Scouts giving their first salutes in uniform as Americans with two fingers, will advance in Scouting and start giving three finger salutes as Americans. Some will go on to serve their county and start to give four finger salutes, but their first salutes in uniform will always be as Cub Scouts with two finger against the hat. The Character Connection for November is Respect. There may be no better way to teach respect for the county, the flag, and those who serve in uniform that to teach the importance of that first salute to the flag. Teach boys to wear their uniforms with pride and to be respectful of the flag and to give a crisp proper salute when they honor it.
