Courtesy and Protocol Courtesy is the key to successful human relationships. Promotes spirit of teamwork Enhances success of social activities Protocol involves universally accepted customs and regulations that govern the formality, precedence and etiquette practiced on a day-to-day basis within a civilized society. 3 As civilian members of the USCG Auxiliary we hold no military rank. Active and Reserve personnel deserve our salute or respect for their rank held. If Auxiliary member saluted; courtesy is to return the salute.

Standing at Attention Stand up straight and tall. Keep your chest lifted and arched with your shoulders squared. Touch your heels together; toes of both shoes turn out at a 45-degree angle. Keep your legs together and straight without locking your knees (you may faint otherwise). Your arms remain straight at your sides along the seams of your pants. Look straight ahead with your head up focusing your eyes directly in front of you. 4
