<HTML>I have seen the Kriegsmarine mostly using the standard military salute. Although, on occassions that required it (in Hitler\'s presence, etc.) you see the \"Party\" salute.

Hitler seemed to return a salute with the casual Party salute...but gave the stiff arm salute for parades and such.

This is just from observing old film footage, and I\'m not sure of precise protocal. I did see one film where an older gentleman was giving instructions on the salute, and a reference was made to the hand being at around eye level....</HTML>
