I would really like to know too, the only documents I have studied (I did a paper on nationalism for one of my promotion courses) only referred to the Civilian government and the Wehrmacht (Army) I have not seen much about the (Kriegsmarine) Navy. Any history buffs want to take up the challenge of finding some primary source material ?
I definitely would like to know. I have to try looking into it. If you do happen to find out give me a shout.

The "Hitler Salute" was compulsory for civilians, an edict from the Reich Defense Ministry, in 1933, required the Hitler salute of soldiers and uniformed civil servants while singing the national anthem and another song that escapes me , and in non-military encounters both within and outside the Wehrmacht I.e. greeting members of the civil government). All over occasions they were permitted to use there service salutes.
It was not until a failed assassination plot in 1944 that military personnel were ordered to use the "Hitler Salute" in July of 1944. I believe but I do not know this for sure if you were military and not a Nazi Party member you could still use the "Hitler Salute" but I cant see any one facing charges for doing a "Hitler Salute"
Very interesting and . How did the navy refuse the the party salute without any repercussion?

I did not know that about the German navy during WW2. As a history buff i wonder how well that sat with the rest of the military and government. I have to learn more about that.

You know, I was rewatching the last episode with my kids. And WELL, there is a loop hole in our theories. I noticed for the tentacles to be inside the bridge that the glass had to be broken. And Ezra even lifted it using his force powers. It was all over a couple of shots. And I know that in reality, if you are exposed to space you die. So even in hyperspace. You would be exposed to the vacuum of space. I think they accidentally killed Ezra and thrawn. So, now in my head if they show back up. I'm going to want an explanation of how they lived the vacuum of space and at hyperspeed to boot!
Stinking physics! Always getting in my way! Just like gravity being my greatest foe. Its always dragging me down in life
I noticed that too. I figure they are going to write in . He uses the force trick like Liea does TLJ . Which personally I'm not a big fan of , but that's the only way I think they could explain it.

Thank you Dave. My girl went out with her boots on. Duty Honor Empire. So sad but so happy she died a great death with her men. I was a puddle last night. Killed 2 tissue boxes.
It was definitely awesome to see Pryce go out with honor . That was one of the best scenes.

You can still make an ANH Staff Officer with all these items. There is a seperate CRL for this uniform:
http://databank.501st.com/databank/Costuming:ID_anh_staff_officer
So there is no waste at all.
Ok, thanks for straightening that out for me. So it's the current staff officer(black) crl that's changing. So now you can't make an anh configuration , ie gauntlets, merr sonn , dh-17 with a cosplaysky or magnoli at all any more like the way it reads now . I hate to sound like an idiot , just want to be 100% sure . Thank for your patience.

I personally love anh . Been working on a staff officers uniform for a while now. I would hate for it to be a waste. The merr sonn , the holster , the gauntlets. I hope they would still be good for at least level 1.
Do they Salute in the Star Wars universe?

Trencher I should of known you started this talk of WW2 . It's not the first time we discussed WW2. I'm a little distracted tonight, in the middle of a dart tournament.
