I did some more digging on the 21 gun salute. The ONLY one Biden got was for his visit to Arlington as a FOREIGN DIGNITARY.
Here is an article saying the 21 gun salute at Arlington was to mark Biden's inauguration.
He did not get one before this or after this. It was with 3 guns at 10 second intervals which, at Arlington, is SPECIFICALLY for a foreign dignitary visiting the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/21-gun_salute#United_States
The number of cannon used in a battery depends upon the intervals between each round fired. This includes, for example, a three-gun battery firing two of its guns with five-second intervals between rounds and one gun remaining at the ready in case of a misfire; such a battery would be used at an Armed Forces Full Honors Funeral, or for State Arrival Ceremony of a foreign dignitary at the Tomb of the Unknowns in Arlington National Cemetery.
The wiki is wrong about the interval with 3 guns. It is 10 seconds, not 5 seconds.
Here’s the same 21 gun salute with 3 guns at 10 second intervals given when the Defense Secretary of Jordan visited Arlington.
From wiki:
Today, a 21-gun salute is rendered on the arrival and departure of the President of the United States.
The one earlier on inauguration day is for Trump's departure that morning, NOT for Biden who was not President yet.
Find the 21 gun salute that Biden got for HIS inauguration, like Trump did here. You won't, because it DID NOT HAPPEN.
Past Presidents received the 21 gun salute with 4 guns at 3 second intervals.
More 21 Gun Video Research:
History of Presidential 21 Gun Salute fired as soon as the President is sworn in (1 min video)
HISTORICAL VIDEO PROOF:
Reagan in 1985 At 1:05 Interestingly…moved inside due to weather (7° with -25° windchill factor). Still see and hear those cannons though.
Obama 2 at 41(hard to hear over crowd)
Biden at 33:30 NO 21 GUNS only SILENCE
21 Gun Salute Wed afternoon, only this salute is different with 10 sec breaks and they only used 2 guns out of 3 at the wreath laying: Clip:
Full: approx 14 min to 17+min mark. It takes 3.5 minutes to fire 21 rounds with 10 sec intervals.
Grunge trying to sell the later 21 Gun Salute
They pulled most of their article from this Army site
Strange that with so many military in attendance they would not do a very traditional military thing…that has been done at every other inauguration I can find.
Thank you! I was watching the inauguration, and I remember the woman saying that there would be a 21 gun salute. And then there was a super awkward silence and nothing happened.
So then when people were saying he got a salute I was super confused because the moment he was supposed to get one there was only silence.
Is there a good clip of that somewhere?
I'm looking, but either my memory is wrong or they edited it out.
I found it in another comment. Definitely weird comparing them to previous inaugurations
I also remeber watching a super long awkward pause and I swear to god I sat there watching live screaming at my TV that it was HABBENING and expected military teams to rappel down and YOUNG MAN to start playing, but then nothing habbened and everyone just moved on whilst looking partially relieved.
It was then that I started to worry something WAS planned by Q team but it was scrapped last minute, maybe due to DS threats or something...
"fake president" is verbatim what Trump said in a tweet about him. I think in december.
Here is the queued historical proof. Just click and you're at the right time
2021 - Biden
2017 - Trump
2009 - Obama
2001 - Bush
1993 - Clinton
1989 - Bush Sr.
1981 - Regan
1977 - Carter
1969 - Nixon
Foreign dignitaries can receive 21 gun salutes when visiting installations... such as Arlington National Cemetery. But what's the difference between a presidential salute and a foreign dignitary's salute?
Well here is Obama visiting
3+1 gun battery configuration, 3 second intervals
And here is Jordan's Secretary of Defense visiting
2+1 gun battery configuration, 9 second intervals
And here is Biden visiting
2+1 gun battery configuration, 9 second intervals
POTUS always gets the 3+1@3sec configuration. So not only was Biden denied the salute following his oath at the 'inauguration', but Biden was received at Arlington National Cemetery as though he were a visiting foreign dignitary.
The Military does not recognize Biden
And that means literally everything is in play and ongoing
Thank you for this reference with time stamps.
Wow that's insane. So wait, please substantiate what I'm seeing. I watched Obama and Trump and Biden. So after they make the oath, Hail to the Chief plays, and within moments the 21 gun salute starts. But for Biden, after he takes the oath, Hail to the Chief plays but there is no 21 gun salute. Then, there is an awkward silence for like a full minute. And then they just get on with the show?? Lol. Is that really what happened?!
Yes. We watched the live feed, that is what happened.
Yes and I just rewatched it. It's all just so tremendously goofy I wanted to hear other people to be sure they saw the same bizarre scene as me.
Yes that is what happened. And for additional context, when the salute accompanies music such as hail to the chief, the battery commander coordinates to ensure the first shot coincides with the start of the music. It only appears to start within moments because the first shot is muffled by the sudden volume increase by music and cheers and you're waiting three seconds for the second shot.
With Biden there's music but no gun rapports, and no video of guns because none were positioned, because no salute was to be given, because as I surmise the military clearly knows, and clearly does not recognize Biden.
Compare this to the 21-gun salute for Obama at Arlington for the 2013 National Memorial Day:
https://youtu.be/57kN-uWzPug?t=222
4 artillery pieces, 3-second intervals on a ridge overlooking the cemetery. Army regulations may specify that a 3-second interval is not safe for a battery of 3 artillery guns, but there is no way that the military would not have the freedom to choose a good spot to set up a battery of 4.
Edit: They are also most definitely capable of 5-second intervals for a battery of 3 artillery guns:

I compiled a quick list of other videos to compare to here:

How terrible!
Great work! Saved your post
It should be pointed out that Arlington is not part of the District of Columbia, aka Washington, DC. It is part of Virginia, USA. If Xiden is not POTUS, but a foreign diplomat/envoy from DC to the United States, it'd make sense he'd only get 17 guns and delayed, when he visited American soil.
Ohhhh good point
Thank you for the thoughtful post here, it has the goods ... sauce, meats, veggies and a dash of opined dessert.
And I think we all know who the "Unknown Soldier" is that those guns are saluting. The master troller strikes again!
Thank you
Maybe this is a tool being used by the military. Maybe if once they finally remove him and start making arrests or whatever they'll point back to all this footage, saying HE WAS NEVER THE PRESIDENT and we knew it, hence why there were never any proper salutes and all these other presidential customs provided for him (AF1 for example).
That way it doesn't just look like some angry military coup when they're all removed as it will have been shown it was a long-term operation.
Did he (Potato Biden) also remove the military flag from the White House as well?
No way the military would do this by mistake.
Excellent writeup! Thanks
Biden at 33:30, huh? Figures
Honestly I believe that salute was for the unknown soldier, hence the funeral timing. I don't think anyone was firing guns for Biden, nor would they have for Trump. Non issue
It wasn't. They did it right when Biden was visiting. They didn't just happen to randomly do a 21 gun salute for no reason right as Biden was visiting by coincidence. And there was no full honors funeral going on. The articles also say specifically that salute was for his inauguration. You are just wrong.
The 3 gun salute with 10 second intervals is done for two reasons: an Armed Forces Full Honors Funeral, or for State Arrival Ceremony of a foreign dignitary at the Tomb of the Unknowns in Arlington National Cemetery.
Either the military is trolling Biden with that salute or they do not recognize him as POTUS. Period.
I would agree that they performed the salute because Biden was visiting, but still it seems improper to salute an officer/official at someone else's tomb, which is why I have this opinion. And the people writing articles don't know shit about what's going on, that is for sure.
How much did it hurt? You know, when you twisted yourself into a pretzel to come up with what you're saying.
