Situation
never turn and walk away to avoid giving a hand salute
A twenty one gun salute is a military (army and navy) honour for Heads of State. This is thought to come about for the early days of gunpowder which was very hard to keep dry on ships. So naval ships would fire a seven gun salute, which forts on land had to answer with a ratio of 3 to 1, this is where the number 21 comes from.
a 12 gun salute is a military funeral salute. It is usaully performed by 4 uniformed honor guards who fire 3 shots. 4x3=12, hence the title 12 gun salute.
A soldier gets a 21 gun salute.
The Nazi Salute has two origins, both of which are disputed at times.Number one: The most plausible theory:Adolf Hitler modelled the Nazi Salute after ancient Roman soldiers, who would jut their arms forward in the same way as a salute to their superiors.Number two: The other theory:Hitler took the fascist arm raise from Benito Mussolini (Commandant of the Italian Army), who invented it because he had a fear of handshaking.
