Cub Scouts

Is this similar to the salute used by Cub Scouts? - knoodelhed 08:24, 13 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Well yes -- according from what I can see on this http://www.geocities.com/~pack215/cs-salute.html picture. Polish salute however differ in point of touching the hat's visor. I shall update the article later today. Przepla 19:19, 13 Mar 2004 (UTC)

But in the cub scout salute the palm faces away from the signer, toward the person or flag being saluted - I leave this for someone else to correct.

hey hey, it's not like that. Polish Cub Scouts/Boy Scouts/Girl Guides (scouts and guides of all ages, apart from brownies and wolf cubs) when covered also salute to the emblem (mainly fleur-de-lys), not to the eyebrow. When one doesn't have a hat on, he salutes only by nodding the head or by raising right hand in three-fingers salute or by saluting to the Badge (a cross, as a matter of fact) Matildasnape 22:19, 2 October 2006 (UTC) matildasnape[reply]

Two fingers gesture in medieval art

An anonymous [1] added pictures of two fingers gesture in medieval art. Do they have significance here, I have no idea. Przepla 19:41, 24 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Return of the Jedi

Didn't Luke Skywalker use this salute to signal R2-D2 in Return of the Jedi? Siyavash 16:46, 21 June 2007 (UTC) No although he did show only two fingers. 195.153.45.54 13:16, 23 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Gears of War

What's this information doing in an article about the two-fingered salute? Surely it's off topic?!?
