Digging? The standard is from a US Army website. It's common sense too, is it not? When carrying something with both arms it would be unreasonable and cumbersome to have to stop, put the thing down, stand up and salute, pick the thing up again and resume walking, even moreso if you have to do it multiple times. But if you're just carrying a cup in your hand, just change hands and salute.
But I know you Leftists have a hard time with common sense so I understand the frustration.
Actually, "common sense" dictates the President - as a civilian - should not salute at all. Until Reagan came along.

No, common sense does not dictate that - as a sign of respect, there's a legitimate reason why it is acceptable albeit not mandatory. But the protocol should be either do it or don't, but don't do some half arse or improper gesture if you are going to bother in the first place.
