Right.

The man who popularized it, Francis Bellamy, also wrote and popularized the Pledge of Allegiance.

Ironic, though, isn’t it, that the same salute should be used to pledge allegiance to Caesar (“ave Caesar morituri te salutant”), Napoleon, Hitler, Mussolini, and the American flag.

Well, I guess it could be worse as we could switch to even more classic salutes, like the pledge of obidience Alexander the Great adopted from the Persian rulers (a sort of belly to floor kowtow).
