THE FIRST SALUTE received by a freshly commissioned second lieutenant is always significant, symbolizing authority and prestige. When I pinned on my new Air Force gold bars and stepped out to face the world, I encountered a staff sergeant. Giving me a snappy salute, he said, "Good morning, Lieutenant. Your hat is on backward." As the years have passed, anytime I begin to feel self-important, I remember those words.
