Regulations regarding the Compliments to be paid by Non-commissioned Officers and Soldiers to Officers of the Army and Navy.

It is equally the Duty of Non-commissioned Officers and Soldiers at all times, and in all situations, to pay the proper Compliments to Officers of the Royal Navy, and to Officers of other Regiments (when dressed in their Uniforms), as to the Officers of their own particular Corps.

When a Soldier without Arms, or with Side-arms only, meets an Officer, he will continue to move on, but he is to raise his hand to his Cap, looking at the same time in a respectful and soldier-like manner at the Officer, who, it is presumed, will ever feel disposed to make a suitable acknowledgment to the Compliment he receives from a Soldier.

Officers commanding Brigades and Regiments are responsible that this very essential point of Discipline is enforced with the most scrupulous exactness; and that a neglect of it is in no instance allowed to escape Reprehension or Punishment, according to the circumstances of the case.
