Barack Obama's military service?

Mr. Obama, like many members of congress born in the 1960s, did not serve in the military. By the time he was growing up, there was no longer a military draft, nor a war going on, since the war in Vietnam had ended.


Can Obama return a salute if he did not serve in the military?

Of course. The salute is a ritual that is meant to show respect. For example, when a president exits Air Force One, the military guard at the foot of the plane's stairs salutes the president (whether that president served in the military or not); the president then returns the salute.
