The Shake Hands or Shake command may be given verbally using either the single or two-word instruction (or implied by extending an arm and hand for greeting), and requires the House Boy to respond by extending his own arm and grasping hands in a friendly manner while introducing himself or otherwise making welcoming remarks, eventually returning his own arm and hand to a downward position and assuming the At Ease or Report position unless instructed otherwise.
