It originates back to the ancient Achaemenians. Kings/Queens were seen as divine, as a sign of respect, lower ranks used to cover their eyes to shield themselves from their blinding radiance (inherited by modern religious imagery like that of 'King of Kings' title). Another variant is the covering of the mouth, to as not to pollute the Kings; this variant is still practiced by Zoroastrian priests when reciting scared text of the Avesta.

I thought the salute was influenced by the fact that people would show respect by taking their hat off to recognise a superior. I have heard that this evolved into touching one's hat and from this the salute. The British Army and Air force salute palm facing out but the Royal Navy salute with palm down. This may have then influenced other militaries.

This American salute is the same as that used in the British Royal Navy. The Army & Airforce salute shows a fully open hand facing outward to the recipient. There is also a difference in the presentation of the salute between naval & army & air force. In the army & airforce the right hand travels to the head in a circular motion & returns directly to the side (often called 'longest way up & shortest way down'). The naval salute resembles the US salute & was, supposedly, because there was less room below decks on naval ships.

One version sees the hands of sailors being dirty and therefore not to be seen by whoever's being saluted.

I definitely go with the knights of old idea. As an Englishman though I would like to ask you Americans when it was that you started to salute the way that you do now, Because as depicted in many movies the army especially around the time of the Civil War still saluted palm forward ,the way the British army salutes.

This video talks about the origins of the salute in general. In the United States case It is more likely that the salute we use here in the U.S. actually comes from the Royal Navy. Originally, the salute was performed with the palm facing out. This is still the case in the British Army, the Royal Airforce, and the Royal Marines. This salute comes from British soldiers taking off their hat as a sign of respect. Has their headdress became more complicated and harder to remove, they simply touched their headdress instead of removing it. This resulted in the salute we still see in many branches around the world today with the palm facing out. I believe all branches of the French Armed Services including the navy still salute with the palm facing out. The British Royal Navy also used this salute until one day when Queen Victoria was visiting one of her ships. One of the sailors saluted and their hands were dirty with tar which they used to seal the deck. Saluting with a dirty hand was disrespectful so the Queen ordered that they rotate their hands down when they salute. We use this salute in all of our branches to this day, the Royal Navy still does although all other branches in HM’s Armed Forces still use the old salute.

All the Roman movies are based on fiction. We have no idea how the Roman's used to salute.

Apart from the Navies. Naval ratings constantly had tar and grease covered hands from always handling hemp rope, barrels etc. So when they saluted , they turned the palm downwards so the overall appearance was "tidier". The US salute comes from the Colonist influence - it was the British Navy who were in the Colony, so local militia grew up seeing only that salute.

Nope. Most visors were fixed. Those that lifted were mainly so the helmet could come on and off easier, or so the knight could poke food in. Knights wore distinctive crests and colours on overtunics, shields and horse blankets as identification, for the very reason that there was no way to recognize anyone inside full armour. Lifting a visor to be recognized implies close quarters - too late if its an enemy.

The Royal Navy salute palm down whereas the British Army and Royal Air Force salute with palm showing. The reasoning for this is that it was deemed impolite of a sailor to salute an officer with invariably dirty hands through working on the rigging etc, way back when, so the salute became palm down, and I believe US armed forces adopted this. Also, in Britain, you must not salute an officer or vice versa if not wearing a military hat or beret. This is because when British serviceman salute an officer they are saluting the Queen's Commission, that the officer just so happens to be entitled to.

When I was in school, they always told us "we salute this way in the USA because it's to show we've never lost a war, while everyone else has". Honestly, I always felt it was a bunch of BS, but that's what they fed us in grade school. A more ancient tradition from past cultures passed down through the generations seems like a much more likely reasoning to me.

My knowledge of the "Roman Army" Salute was that of a closed fist to the chest where the heart is and then extending the closed fist out. It was a sign of Respect for "Rank" which was really created by the Romans as well as "Boot Camp" or "Basic Training". You in the Roman Times and (Today) Salute the RANK not the "Man". It is a sign of respect to those who carry the burden of planning and carrying out of orders that mean life or death in War.

It all boils down to instinctive body language, ultimately a salute is exposing your chest/thorax to potential attack which emulates trust and a willingness to be vulnerable. People really are just animals at our core.

Romans & fiction-> British-> Americans.. You missed the Brits

i didn't know the salute that existed before Britain colonized the north american continent, was called the US military salute

Actually when you get down to it, who cares how the salute began? The simple answer is 'just do the salute as you were trained to do in Basic Training/Boot Camp to all those above you that rate the salute and you will get along fine. Besides, if you do inadvertedly salute someone who would not normally rate a salute; so be it. It is a greeting and simply a recognition of the person approaching you. Happens to everyone at some time or another during their service career.

The military salute is an Occult gesture. The meaning of it that is given in this video is the exoteric meaning of it. Esoteric meaning of it is a lot deeper than that. When you salute in the military the tips of your fingers is pointing towards the middle of your four head which is where the third eye chakra is. And also your arm is slanted downward creating a half- pyramid. The pyramid is only complete when the officer salutes back. Since he is at the top of the rank structure he is going to be towards the top of the pyramid. So when the officer(OFF-EYE-SEER)salutes back he is completing the pyramid with the third eye chakra being at the top or all Seeing Eye representing spiritual illumination, christ consciousness, universal mind etc.But it is given to you in proxy. It is anything but spiritual illumination to be in the military. They are trying to sell an idea on a subconscious level. This is a form of mind control. Many people look with their eyes but do not see.

I'm glad to see someone else is enlightened to the esoteric/occult bindings that subliminally work our subconscious into a hive like one minded mentality, or world unification. It always is, has been, and shall be about the very pyramid hierarchy that has perpetually controlled all facets of society, even today; the same Pharaonic bloodlines of aristocratic lineage continue to subjugate the majority of humanity into bondage, slavery. Mind control is the primary business of government; to govern the minds of the sea of peoples. All governments are coerced in corruption. The only recent, major systematic change has been the implementation of the Novus Ordo Seclorum; a transition from a 'rule by one' of Emperor, King, Priest-King, Monarch, etc. old world order system of governance thru the 1st born sons of aristocracy, to a 'rule by many' system, in which Freemasons and those of various other worldly secret societies that comprise the pyramid hierarchy system through 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th born sons of the aristocratic bloodlines, take turns every few years in the reigns of power through controlled/rigged "elections" and other political tools of subversion. The hand signs practiced in the military are paralleled with those taught in the various degrees of Free & Accepted Masonry; tokens, dueguards, passphrases, signs & symbols to identify each other in varying degrees of security & confidentiality. These are ancient rites practiced throughout time, honored by the state (or central authority) in its evolutionary forms throughout history, along with the secret societies that have done their due diligence in accumulation of knowledge necessary to the completion of what is known as the Ancient Hope, or the Order of the Quest, or the Sacred Promise or Great Work.. it was written in the Secret Destiny of America by Manly P Hall, by Sir Francis Bacon in the New Atlantis, H. P. Blavotsky's the Secret Doctrine, in Alice Bailey's the Externalization of the Hierarchy, etc. etc. etc. It is none other than the revival of the Ancient Mysteries! Let me quote.. "for more than 3000 years, secret societies have labored to create the background of knowledge necessary to the establishment of an ENLIGHTENED democracy among the nations of the world... secret societies still exist, and regardless of the intemperance of times, they will continue to flourish until the QUEST is complete..." Sheeple will typically only understand and care for the exoteric. It is not in their authority nor privilege to understand nor be taught the various meanings/understandings of the esoteric, to deeper and deeper degrees. The fomenting of the pyramid hierarchy ensures this, it is always about information dissemination on a need to know basis, compartmentalization. Unfortunately, largely due to programming, sheeple also have a limited attention span that does not typically initiate an action potential for yearning to understand the esoteric; it usually revolves around pleasure fulfillment of the flesh.. the advertising/marketing and entertainment industries of business today (psychological exploiters) are primary drivers to these consumerist behaviors. Consumerism does not regard the very environment that which we take for granted on a daily basis, sadly by design. We have the technology today to create an entirely new civilization, yet we use it largely for the wrong reasons; evidence to show the world is being misguided in a multitude of directions leading us astray. It's our duty to help others wake up to see reality, and unplug from the Matrix of propaganda lies, deceit, misinformation, lack of knowledge, etc.

***Wrong*** The salute is from Mithraism. A gesture that you protect your eye of a bright general. Go read Mithra that origin was from Iran and Rom took MIthra as theyr own military god.

0:38 it looks like a hitler salute

Sorry, but I call BS on pretty much every origin story here. Men removing hats as a sign of politeness and respect (from Biblical times... read Corinthians!) predates all of these theories by centuries. This created the salute of European (then American) armed forces. When large, hard to remove hats became part of army dress (think bearskins and Grenadier mitres) lifting the hand to the hat and bringing it down empty was all they could practically do. Most "visors" on knights helmets could not be lifted to reveal identities - that's just in movies so you can recognize the actor (imagine visors flapping around whilst galloping), no pirates lifting eye-patches to reveal the eye underneath (that one made me laugh - they wore an eyepatch when their eye was missing!). The truth is revealed in the other parts of the salute tradition - you only salute when you are wearing a hat. There is no saluting indoors (because military cannot wear a hat indoors), and no saluting when either of the parties involved are out of uniform (i.e. no military hat or cap). And you only salute a commissioned officer who is your superior. Respect - not "I am unarmed" or "I am a friend". For pity's sake - you salute whether you are armed or not! Where did the Americans get the tradition of saluting? From the Navy of the former British rulers, of course. So for all of you Americans who think any history or tradition pre-1776 is "shrouded in mystery"... swallow your pride and ask someone British!

Thanks for the video. Yes there is a little truth it’s coming from the Roman Empire. The meaning of it is : “I shield my eyes from your solar glory.” Before explaining this sign of respect we should talk about history. Do you know the religion in Europe before christianisme ? It was Mithraism, the religion that was introduced by Roman soldiers into Europe. It was the Persian god of song called Mithra. Mithra is the god of the sun. The birthday is 21st of December ( not 24) from that day days are going to become longer that’s the victory of the sun over the darkness. Jesus replaced Mithra because Roman Empire did not want the Persian god to be the dominant religion. So they copy and paste the life of Mithra making a mistake on calculating the sun day from 21 to 24 of December. There was in Europe many Mithra temples « Mithraeums » 60 in France destroyed replaced by churches even one was found in London. The statu of liberty is also representative of Mithra with hallow of sun around the head. Bartholdi was a free mason and in freemasonry you have many symbolism coming from. Mithra. Anyway the salute is coming from the Persian empire soldiers. It’s the way of salute of Mithra the god of sun. It’s also the way of salute of soldiers to commanders. It’s a way to “ hiding your eyes from the brightness of the light coming out of the god of the sun » or also the brightness of the great military commander. Roman soldiers took this salutations way from Persian empire soldiers.
