Bellamy salute
The Bellamy salute was a palm-out salute created by James B. Upham as the gesture that was to accompany the American Pledge of Allegiance12. It was also known as the "flag salute" during the period when it was used with the Pledge of Allegiance1. Americans used the Bellamy salute until the days before World War II, when Italians and Germans began showing loyalty to dictators Benito Mussolini and Adolf Hitler .
