Just before the attack, when the officers launch ties up at the dock on Ford Island, the two officers who get off the launch only salute the coxswain while disembarking. Since the launch was flying the ensign (American flag) from its stern, Naval protocol states they would've had to salute the ensign after saluting the coxswain, just as if they were departing a ship.
