Thanks, I was doing some fact checking on the USA today. I wouldn't expect them to know the difference. I did see that Navy Seals.com & airforcetimes.com either reprinted the USAToday article or just used the AP story so i was starting to doubt myself :)

Glad to help. I happen to next to the Naval Academy, so we are very used to ceremonial salutes. It is actually kind of fun to count them and try to figure out who was visiting the Mids that day. My Labradors are probably the calmest dogs you will ever see in the presence of artillery fire!
