Crossed fingers in photos?

I have heard that the military uses crossed fingers in photos as an indicator of duress. Jason Quinn (talk) 16:56, 31 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Have they ever done anything outside of fiction?

From the article to date, they look like a popular device in fiction only. If a duress code has ever actually been used and had an effect, it should be noted in the article with a reference. I'm tempted to add a section saying there has not been any known instance of a duress code in the real world having been used and had any effect. Tempshill (talk) 03:31, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
