Those who have served anywhere has probably saluted or been saluted by people from other services. I have noticed that some are more crisp than others. Based on your experiences of which service has the best salute?

According to the photo, the airman is most correct with his salute. The soldier's arm is too high, the Marine's wrist is crooked, and the sailor's hand is canted slightly downward.

Been in both the Marine Corps Infantry as well as the army infantry, and O taught funeral honors for the army as well. I was amazed at how few soldiers knew how to properly salute, or even do basic d&c movements.

I think any salute by any member delivered with pride, respect, and professionalism is a damn good salute and at that time, whatever the service, that is the best salute.

Wow. I would have thought it was the Army Specialist rank that does the best salute. Especially when they mean it as a veiled sign of disrespect.
