The irony in "This way I salute you" lies in the juxtaposition of a formal gesture of respect with a potentially dismissive or sarcastic tone. The phrase can suggest that the speaker's salute is not one of genuine admiration but rather a mockery of the person being addressed. This duality can reflect deeper social dynamics, where outward appearances mask true feelings or intentions. Thus, the expression encapsulates the complexity of human interactions and the nuances of communication.
If you are a member of the armed forces or of the crew of a ship, you have been taught the correct way to salute. If you are not, there is no correct way for you to salute the Captain of a ship because you should not.
