    Compulsory Occupational Transfer [COT] questions

    Paying Compliments (Saluting, Verbal Address)

    Walking to work when I was at 101, I saluted an Air Force Maj one day.  He was carrying a briefcase and talking on his cell phone.  It was funny watching him trying to juggle everything to return it.
