			Bellamy’s original version of the Pledge, however, did not require the person reciting it to place their hand over their heart. Instead, it required the person reciting it to begin with their right hand in a military salute over their forehead. Then, when the person spoke the words “to the Flag,” they were supposed to raise their right hand toward the flag with their arm perfectly straight and rigid and their palm facing the ground in the [[Roman salute]].

	Bellamy considered adding the word "equality" to stand with "liberty and justice," but feared it would be too controversial. In 1924, against Bellamy’s wishes, the American Legion and Daughters of the American Revolution pressured the National Flag Conference to replace the words "my flag" with "The Flag of the United States of America." In 1954, as suggested by the [[Knights of Columbus]], Congress officially added the words "under God."

	It was not uncommon for citizens to salute the flag with a [[Roman Salute]] in those days, afterall America was largely based on Ancient Rome.
