True/False: Salutes are not required when carrying articles with both hands.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Only indoors
• D. Only outdoors

Answer: (B)

Saluting is a sign of respect that you render while in uniform to officers who address you or when you meet them. Carrying items with both hands does not remove that obligation. The proper approach is to try to free at least one hand to give the standard right-hand salute, or stop briefly to salute if you can’t salute while you're moving. If that isn’t possible due to safety or practicality, acknowledge the officer and salute at the next convenient moment. So the statement is false.
