Saluting
Does anyone know if when wearing a beanie, Do you salute an officer? And if so do you know where I could find the order where it states that?

hahaha..we had a discussion about this awhile back. Came to this conclusion...
Being that it is an authorized cover yes you would, but you would never wear a beanie under normal circumstances in garrison while in uniform(cammies or otherwise). So it wouldn't really matter or apply.
It would be cool to see an order on such a thing though to know for sure.

Well the question came up because of how cold it gets on the east coast during the winter and the beanie is authorized at after evening colors and befor morning colors but I was looking for the order that stated whether or not a salute was mandatory. I figured you would but I was tasked to find the order on it

Define beanie. I beanie slang for a watch cap? Us old farts never wore such things. If it was cold we just toughed it out.

Beanie defined would have to be the brown cotton cover they give you when you receive all your cif gear

Okay, listen up all num-nuts: We were always taught that "when in doubt salute" Its not going to brake your frigging arm. What the h_ll is so complicated.

If you are in uniform and your 'beanie' is authorize after evening colors and before morning colors...then you are covered and should salute when outdoors and see an officer.
Seems very straight forward to me.
A beanie huh? Interesting.

If it moves, and you are in doubt, salute it. If it does not move, paint it Marine green, give it a number and put it in stock. Doesn't take and G-2 to figure it out.
