Greetings & Salutations! Have a copy myself in my collection of Spanish-American War era to the Korean War era printed matter such as booklets, brochures, comic-books, magazines, pamphlets, etc., of illustrations of soldier and sailor life back to 1898 and up to 1953. This particular comic came out during the Korea War of 1950-1953. There are more comic books like this one out there, have a few dozen in my own collection. Herbert Booker of Florida

Do You Make These Mistakes In Saluting?
1
When in uniform a soldier does NOT tip his hat to ladies! A salute is the proper greeting.
2
On the pay line, salute BEFORE receiving your money ... NOT afterwards!
3
When soldiers are on work detail only the soldier in charge salutes an officer.
4
A soldier under arms gives the rifle salute. This soldier is giving a hand salute and it is WRONG!
5
A soldier carrying large things with both hands need NOT salute.
6
When reporting to an officer indoors ... remove your headdress BEFORE reporting ... except under arms.
7
Noncommissioned officers rate a lot of respect ... but they should not be saluted.
8
Never salute on the run! ALWAYS slow down to a walk or a halt first!
