I don't know who to salute on this site, but I do occasionally have to use the knife hand at a member who has gone astray.

I haven't seen the knife hand used in a while 1SG... I guess it's fallen out of favor in medical units

No Hierarchy. Peer network. Though we do have folks like LTC Yinon Weiss CPT Aaron Kletzing our CEO and Co-Founder, respectively. The ranks as presented are more for Context than anything. They provide a measure of information regarding experiences, though because we have Vets, Retirees, and Service-Members, those ranks aren't as indicative as you might think. We have Specialists who have been out 40~ years who are CEOs of their own companies and have Lead and Managed as much as Generals, but on the Civilian side. We have Colonels who decided they would do nothing more than raise their rod and the occasional beer.

So Chain of Command doesn't mean much around these parts.
