False. It is perfectly fine to stand at attention facing the flag without placing your hand over your heart or saluting. Unless you are a member of the Armed Forces. It may be expected for you to remove your hat and place your hand over your heart, but it's not illegal if you don't. Donna in Virginia |

Shall we discuss the difference between "should" and "must?" Yep, that's the key. The US Code says you "should," which I interpret to mean that if you don't, you're not technically in violation of the law even though the clear intent of the Code is that you should salute/put hand over heart. Seems sensible to me. Best wishes, Ericka |
