What organisation in your country used the "Roman salute" as a form of greeting?
What slogan was used when saluting? What was the responsive slogan?

Patriotic People's Movement (Isänmaallinen Kansanliike, IKL). Their youth-wing, The Blue And Blacks (Sinimustat), later The Blackshirts (Mustapaidat) probably also used it.
I'm not aware of any slogan in the style of Sieg - Heil, or Za dom - Spremni.

It was used during the Independent state of Croatia.

The salute Za dom - spremni! (literally transl. from Croatian: For home - ready!)
It means something like "For home - ready to fight/die"

In Italy:
The ROMANS themselfs :D
and the FASCISTS, Tony already pointed that out...:thumb001:
In Holland:
The 'NSB' - Nationaal Socialistisch Beweging
This was the Dutch equivalent of the German NSDAP.
They shouted : HOU ZEE!! ( a historical maritime greating of somekind).

The leader: Anton Mussert
The Vaps Movement (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaps_Movement), (Estonian: Eesti Vabadussőjalaste Keskliit)
And the slogan they used was "Jőudu vőitluseks!" - "Strength for the fight/struggle!". The Vaps movement is quite notable because they had strong public support and would have been running the country if not for the president's coup in 1934 just to stop them.

There were organisations before WWII which could employ the salute, but the only organisation I am sure about is the Union of Belarusian Youth (1943-1945).
The slogans used (not only by the youth) were "yvie Biełaruś!" - "yvie!" (~Es lebe Weißruthenien!) or (rarely) "yvie Biełaruś!" - "Słava Baćkaŭčynie!" (~Es lebe Weißruthenien! - Glory to the Fatherland!).
Today slogan yvie Biełaruś! is not like forbidden, but in a way tabooed. So when one of local pop stars once happened to shout it from the scene, some people went so far as to call it "an ideological sabotage" and to upload the fragment of the video to YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k6gKQQSLETc).

The Arrow Cross Movement (http://www.theapricity.com/forum/showthread.php?t=369) used the slogan "Kitartás!" - "Persistence!" - with the salute, sometimes extended by the phrase "Éljen(Hail) Szálasi!".

I don't need to post photos of Germans showing the Roman salute or the Hitlergruß. Everyone knows the photos of the Nazi era. :wink

unless there is presented some evidence to contradict
that francis bellamy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francis_Bellamy)'s salute/pledge
and his stated goal to use both
to inculcate youth in to "military socialism"
which - very shortly - evolved in to the "scouting (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boy_Scouts_of_America#Origins)"
that carried the salute, swastika and wandervögel
in to germany and the rest of the world...
