The oath I took in ‘67 (administered by my Dad who was an O-6) still holds today. Apparently the lyin’ king had his fingers crossed when he took the oath the first time around. The oath means something to a LOT of folks. To others, not so much.
You can have Taqiyya or crossed fingers; using both is redundant.
