Yes they were, but from what I remember, and witnessed first hand while stationed in Germany one does not render a salute during the playing of another country’s national anthem.

We had an annual contest with our German counterparts, and we didn’t salute during their national anthem, and they didn’t salute during ours. Same for when we went to Belgium for the 50th anniversary celebration of their liberation.
