Now, in that picture it does not look like he is signalling “OK” (although he may have been), it looks more like a gesture you might make to underscore “the point is....” something like that.
Boy, we’re probably going to have to lock up all the Italians, eh? I mean, they are a gesticulating people! (And this pope is of Italian descent, his parents were both born in Italy I believe.)
I’m looking at the picture of the young parrot petty officer in the foreground and in the background is the watch stander flashing the white power sign... In reality it looks like he’s picking a zip in front of his ear.

LOL...I knew somebody would check. You win!

Good memory, Drew! Thanks for bringing that up. Perfect example of the hypocrisy of leftists. Especially fitting that both cases are in branches of the armed forces.
To: Drew68
FRiends, it's far worse than we first thought. In November 2012, NASA's astronaut Sunita Williams landed in central Kazakhstan aboard a Soyuz capsule after a 125-day stay at the International Space Station. Upon exiting the
RUSSIAN capsule, she flashed the White Power symbol
on former USSR soil. If that isn't proof that Trump colluded with the Russians on White Power, I don't know what is. Impeach now!

It could spell OK if you show your left hand to the camera, or KO, if you show your right.
Utterly insane to think it is in any way a racial slur.
Trump should step in, and whoop some Coastie’s Brass ASSES!!

So, the Coast Guard is now under the authority of stupid people on social media?
God help the mariners!

As a Christian, I've been normally posting "Not This Crap Again" jpgs, but this obviously needs the big guns.

I know nothing of the political landscape of the Coast Guard and its relation to MadDog’s DOD. Will be interesting to see this play out.
Usually Trump calls out this insanity. However, his response to Charlotteville told me he treads lightly when dealing with accusations of “far Right” insanity. Especially before midterms.
At the least, when the hurricane crisis has passed, I’d like to hear the result of an internal investigation. The Coast Guard knows who this man is and whether an innocent man is being victimized by cowardly leadership.

Maybe he was responding to a request where to park the yacht from Kerry.
