Use of Scout Salute


Recommended Posts

Being respectful of another country's flag or anthem has a historical perspective to it. During the great wars, Britain, Canada, Scotland, Ireland, France and many others fought and died side by side with the U.S. for the cause of freedom. Since that time, some of the countries that were our enemies have sent troops to fight along with us for the same cause. So, if we are to be respectful of countries that befriended us during certain time periods, then we may be leaving out those that have changed over the years.

 

The Nazi flag is out. I hope forever.

 

Some countries today have horrible leadership in their governments. I do not respect their acts but I have sympathy for their citizens. I will stand down when their flag passes but my heart goes out to those being repressed. I will continue to salute those that seek freedom anywhere.
