I just finished watching the "Laying of the wreath" ceremony which was broadcast live form Arlington and I have a question on military ettiquette.
If the President is the CINC and swears the oath to defend the Constitution, why does he place his hand over his heart instead of saluting the flag during the National Anthem and the presentation of colors?
Just curious.
