| The final stage of the commissioning ceremony is the First Salute. The newly commissioned officer receives his first salute from a NCO of his choosing. As part of the tradition of the first salute, the new officer gives the NCO a Liberty Silver Dollar minted in the year he graduated as a thank you for all of the training he received from the NCO. |
