Too many celebratory beers, not enough brain cells, attempt at "banter" with his German teammate. Idiotic, but no big deal.
Yep. This was my view of the original photo but I don't think I've ever read anything so pathetic as the explanations and conclusions given in the report. Incredulous doesn't even get close. Who knew that Nazis actually just spent a lot of their time trying to get the attention of teammates, waiters and cameramen?

Me too. Far too many softcocks around these days.

The photographer was called Bussolini.
