A realistic, smartphone-style video filmed outdoors beneath a large U.S. flag on a calm day.
An older white American veteran in his late 60s stands alone facing the flag.
The flag waves slowly above him in the wind.
He straightens his posture and raises his own right hand in a clean, formal military salute.
He holds the salute steadily, without shaking or exaggerated movement.
His expression is calm, firm, and respectful — not emotional or theatrical.
No dialogue.
No background music.
Natural daylight, slight handheld camera feel.
Documentary-style realism, no cinematic effects, no filters.
Vertical format, 9:16, authentic TikTok-style recording.
