I already tried Google, but after your post I keep on wondering...is a "full salute" a military greeting or not?
👁 Confused :confused:

Well, yes it
is. See the mention of the " full
present arms salute" on
this page. There is also the "full gun salute" which can in principle be fired in honour of anyone, though it is executed, of course, by one section or another of the armed forces.
What I was referring to in my reply to Jacinta earlier was the kind of meaning attaching to "full salute", even "full gun salute", at those sites which are listed on Google but which, when I am at work, I cannot consult because my employer has kindly arranged for a page to pop up saying something like: Category "sex" is filtered. I doubt whether all or even most of the persons figuring in those sites are serving members of the armed forces (although "members" certainly do feature).
