Yes, you should render the salute during the "Sounding of Honors". You also salute the playing of the National Anthem (of ANY country, not just the US), "To The Colors", and "Hail to the Chief".
There are several instances when a hand salute should be rendered. One instance is when a recognized person entitled by grade is met or seen. This is not appropriate in public conveyances or public places.
It depends who you are.
A soldier who is physically unable to salute with his or her right hand may render a salute with the left hand.
The hand salute is rendered when greeting a superior officer, when reporting to a superior, to the national colors when passing, at reveille and retreat, and at the playing of the national anthem.

The hand salute is a sign of respect given with the right hand to show no weapon held against the one you are saluting. As such, it could be rendered by anyone, military or not, as a sign of respect. When standing for the passing of the colors or the playing of the National Anthem, however, one's right hand should rest upon the area of the heart as a similar tribute. Recently, the U.S. Congress passed a law allowing veterans to render a salute for the national anthem or passing of colors rather than hand-over-heart at their option.
Much the same way the United States flag is saluted:Those in uniform give the appropriate formal salute.Members of the Armed Forces and veterans who are present but not in uniform may render the military salute.Citizens not in uniform salute by placing their right hand over the heart and men with head cover should remove it and hold it to left shoulder, hand over the heart.Members of uniformed organizations in formation salute upon command of the person in charge.
If you are leading it. You would face the group you are leading. If you are part of the Group you face your leader. It is also appropriate to render the hand salute, which did not exist in the past.
It does matter in which county you are. What I know is; Some places in Belgium they do. In the US Military, you are authorized to salute with your left hand when: You are a band major You are opening the door for a dignitary, with your right hand (i.e the U.S. President) Your right hand/arm is injured Rifle salute, it is a salute done while performing rifle manual movements
The salute is made with the right hand over the heart, the standard civil, not military, flag salute.
