It depends which armed forces you are a member of.Generally you do not salute warrant officers. Salutes are reserved for commissioned officers.A commission is only granted by the head of state. Such commissioned officers grant warrants, hence the name.Countries have different rules regarding warrants and warrant officers. Some you salute, depending on rank and other criteria.
Do you salute an army warrant officer?
Technically an Officer Candidate outranks every enlisted rank. However, they are not officers and you do not salute them. In some situations on a post if the Officer Candidate School trainers deem it necessary, they may make passerby's salute the candidates if they are being disrespectful. This really depends on the SOP of the post, but in general the answer is no.
Do officers of equal rank salute each other?

Does a wo1 warrant officer salute a army 2nd lt?

Do you salute the president?
Yes you do. In the US Military, personal salute Comissoned Warrant officers, and Comissed officers, Foreign friendly Military members, The President, and medal of honor recipients. Like if you earned the Medal of Honor and you were a corporal or private, everybody would have to salute you, even generals. if you are enlistedmen or a non-commisioned officer (NCO) you do not salute eachother, so a E-man (enlisted) would not salute a NCO. Also if you are the lower rank, you have to salute the higher rank first and then the higher rank salutes you bak. But yes if you have to salute the President and you have to call him either "Sir", or "Mr. President". and nothing else except thos two names
Who gets saluted in the armed forces?

Why do Military people salute?
Military personnel salute each other to show respect. It is also a formal military courtesy. Usually enlisted men/women salute officers first. The officers will then either return the salute or put them at ease. In the field (i.e. combat zones) you are not supposed to salute. This is because as mentioned above enlisted persons usually salute officers first. If a sniper or spy is watching saluting an officer would give away the fact that they are an officer and therefore they would become a ideal snipers target. If you eliminate a officer it is Both A: Bad for troop morale. And B: units have a tendancy to fall apart. Hope this helps.
Is an active duty member required to salute a retired officer?
No, there is no requirement to salute a retired officer. If a lower ranking person wants to salute a retired officer as a sign of respect, that would be appropriate. However, it is not required by regulation.
If an enlisted person is standing with an officer and another officer of lower rank walks up is the enlisted person required to return the lower ranked officers salute?
It's actually a bit tricky, but no - the enlisted member should salute the approaching officer after the senior officer has returned the junior's salute or as the junior officer approaches, assuming the senior officer diverts attention from the enlisted to return a salute rather than just acknowledge the salute by a nod. The junior will then return the enlisted member's salute after the senior officer has returned the junior's salute, and the enlisted should hold the salute to the junior officer until returned by the junior officer. However, if the enlisted is engaged in conversation with the senior officer, it is disrespectful to divert attention away from a senior officer to an approaching junior officer to salute. When it occurs, it usually it happens simultaneously when the situation warrants. Most senior officers don't like to be interrupted during a formal conversation (and it's disrespectful to do so unless it's warranted), so most avoid the situation altogether. It depends on the setting as well, e.g., formal or informal, indoors (yes, salutes are rendered indoors at certain functions) or outdoors, etc. Most of the time if a senior officer is engaged in conversation with a junior (enlisted or otherwise), unless it's urgent, the officer wishing to speak to the senior will wait until the senior is finished. If just passing by, the junior may salute the senior, at which point the senior may either acknowledge the salute by a nod, or return if appropriate.
