Scout Salute (back to top)
| All members of the Scout Movement use the
same salute. The salute is made with the right hand and is only used when
you are standing at Alert. It is used as a greeting and as a sign of
respect. Scouts salute with three fingers to remind you of "....your promise to do your duty to God.... to help other people...." The Scout Sign is similar to the salute but you hold your hand at shoulder height. It is only used when someone is making or renewing their Promise. |
