Original Note:
Peter Hegseth does not have Nazi tattoos. The large cross on his chest is a Jerusalem cross and was also used at Jimmy Carter’s funeral and is available for sale on Amazon. Also mentioned is “Deus Vult”, which has been debunked by scholars on the left and right. https://symbolsage.com/jerusalem-cross-symbol-meaning/ https://www.amazon.com/s?k=jerusalem+cross&adgrpid=1330409638156704&hvadid=83150816965077&hvbmt=be&hvdev=m&hvlocphy=83298&hvnetw=o&hvqmt=e&hvtargid=kwd-83150957163465%3Aloc-190&hydadcr=5428_13154810&msclkid=16d15f4e4b5c103d987938c4cd3b078e&tag=hydusmmsn-20&ref=pd_sl_1f0oummwqb_e https://www.npr.org/2017/09/04/548505783/scholars-say-white-supremacists-chanting-deus-vult-got-history-wrong
