[QUOTE]Originally posted by First of Two: [QB] I've heard a lot of truly preposterous things in my life, such as **appropriate Netherlandish examples deleted, I don't want this going to the flameboard** but saluting your flag (and by extension, the people who fought and died to keep you free under it) is not one of them. And yes, the president IS considered the commander-in-chief of the US's armed forces, (even if he does little or no actual commanding) so saluting HIM is appropriate as well. We'll never know for sure whether he was prompted or not, or just imitating the soldiers. I've heard it both ways, from people I'm just as sure don't really know either. As for JFK Jr: I'm sorry he's dead, he seemed like that rare thing nowadays, an OK Kennedy, but he died doing something, probably a series of somethings, that was spectacularly stupid for a man of his age and experience. You DON'T fly a plane under those conditions, especially if you're wearing a cast. [/QB][/QUOTE]
