The Catholic school classroom in Liddy's childhood scenes had the Pledge of Alligiance said with the students' right hands held out palms up instead of on their chests and no mention of "under God", very strange for a religious school. [Note: The phrase "under God" was not incorporated into the pledge until 1954, well after Liddy's childhood. Also, the pledge was offered with an outstretched arm until World War II, when the gesture was deemed too similar too the Nazi salute].
