If you look closely at the salute emoticon... Self-Defense Force's correction tweet Topic Ehime July 2 17:21
A salute emoticon that many people use when they say "I understand" or "I understand" on SNS. Correcting that the emoticon's hand used was left-right, the post of the corrected SNS of the SDF public relations activity has become a hot topic on the Internet.
This post was posted on the official Twitter of the Self-Defense Forces Ehime Regional Cooperation Headquarters, which conducts public relations activities for the Self-Defense Forces.
The salute emoticon I've been using all my posts so far has been left handed, but last month I realized that the person in charge was left-right.
Since I was using the salute automatically displayed on the left hand, I posted on the official Twitter, "I will seriously reflect on it and from now on, I will use the emoticon that I salute with my right hand."
Then, there was a big response such as about 21,000 retweets, and there was also a response from the person in charge of the Self-Defense Forces in Miyazaki that "I will be careful".
"I didn't think it would be such a hot topic, but I am happy that many people will find that salute is the right hand," said Hiroshi Harada, General Manager of the SDF Ehime Regional Cooperation Headquarters.
