General Germless and Sergeant Septic

It's strange that our society greets each other by shaking hands. Our hands are probably the third dirtiest part our bodies, and yet we subject strangers to our germs. If you decline to shake hands, you've effectively destroyed any possibility of friendship/commaraderie with that person.

The military salutes their superiors. Their peers, who knows. Maybe they fist bump, if anything.

I wonder if the Army has lesser rates of communicable diseases among their ranks?
