The old Cub Scout sign was made by the right hand having two fingers up, index and middle fingers in a V-shape (representing wolf ears and the two parts of the Promise) while the thumb holds down the other two fingers.
With Finnish troops... it could be the Baphomet sign for all we know.
It’s an old Germanic tradition mostly used in Central Europe and Parts of Eastern Europe with heavy German influences. The Schwurhand or Swear Hand.
The reason why it appears on the Baphomet. Is the original artist of the reference material used to create the statue. A 19th century Frenchman was heavily influenced by German esoterists and Occultists. But the tradition predates the both the statue. And the reference image used to create the statue
Scouts is with 3 fingers instead of 2, I believe.
Girl Scouts is three fingers …
Thanks for the correction!
