    This photo's reversed, too, unless the Brazilian navy had the odd tradition of saluting with their left hands.

    Don't forget, Brazil is in the southern hemisphere. Doesn't their water go down the drains backwards? If they can eat upside down cake, they can probably salute backwards, too . . . .
