Salutes and courtesies
| Морской словарь |
Nowadays, salutes are marks of respect or honor, but most began as symbols of friendship, through some formal act such as raising a hand to the head, discharging a gun or guns, presenting arms, pointing a sword to the ground, lowering the colors, dipping the topsails, or raising oars. this demonstration of peaceful intent seems universal, irrespective of time and place. for example, medieval knights would raise their visors with their fighting hand to expose unprotected faces for recognition, while african tribal warriors used to lower their shields and trail spear points on the ground to show peaceful intent. tradition holds that the junior person or ship always salutes first, with the courtesy to be immediately returned by the senior. see also gun salutes, national gun salutes, personal gun salutes. when boarding or leaving a usn ship it is customary to salute first the colors on the ensign staff and then turn to salute the quarterdeck. this is not, as is popularly believed, because it used to be the site of a crucifix, but because it is the seat of power and authority. in the rn the boarder merely faces aft and salutes once. in both cases, the ood acknowledges the salute and gives permission to come aboard.
