While NOAA Commissioned Officer Corps and USPHS Commissioned Corps are both uniformed and have ranks, they are fundamentally non-military. Are military members expected to deliver/return salutes when encountering members of these Commissioned Corps?
What about the USCG when they aren't assigned to the Navy? My default would be yes to the USCG since they are an Armed Force; but I probably wouldn't think about it on initially running into anyone from the other two.
