Military Courtesy  Proper respect for rank – Reporting to the Commander/1SG – Officer/NCO entering a building/room  Greeting of the day – Saluting Officer’s with Greeting of the day – Giving the Greeting of the Day to all personnel  Off duty – Personal Dress – Actions during off duty

Respect to Rank Reporting to the Commander: 1. Knock on the door and wait until given permission to enter. 2. Take the most direct path to the Commanders desk and stand approximately 3 steps away. Go to the position of attention and salute and present your rank and name. 3. Lower salute after the commander has rendered the hand salute to you. 4. Remain at the position of attention unless otherwise told to so. Reporting to the 1SG: 1. Knock on the door and wait until given permission to enter. 2. Take the most direct path to the 1SG’s desk and stand approximately 3 away. Stand at the position of attention and present rank and name. 3. Remain at the position of attention until the 1SG has told you otherwise.

Officer/NCO Entering/Leaving a building Officer entering a building: 1. If the Officer is the highest ranking person entering the building you will sound off with “_________ Attention” (I.E. Commander enters the building in the morning for P.T.). Officer leaving a building: 1.

Greeting of the Day Greeting Officers: 1. If outdoors you will render a hand salute within 6 paces of each other. Also a greeting of the day will be given (1 st TMCA does not have a greeting of the day, therefore the greeting is determined by the time of day). I would suggest a greeting of the day to be the 1 st TMCA motto (“First To Move”). 2. If indoors a greeting will be given with no hand salute. The same greeting applies as the above. Greeting NCO: 1. If outdoors you will give the greeting of the day to all NCO’s to include personnel not in the unit. 2. If indoors the greeting will be given. Greeting All Personnel: 1.
