The salute is made by joining the index and middle fingers of the
right hand (holding the other fingers with the thumb) and touching the
extended fingers to the cap visor or forehead. The hand is held the
same as for the Cub Scout sign, except the two fingers are together.
The
Cub Scout salute is used to salute the flag when in uniform and to show
respect to den and pack leaders. It can be used when greeting other Cub
Scouts.
