The US Navy marked its 251st birthday on October 13, 2026. In posts celebrating the occasion, Georgia Governor Brian Kemp and North Carolina Congressman Tim Moore shared a photograph of three Indian Navy frigates: INS Godavari, INS Brahmaputra and INS Beas. Other officials used images identified as Russian warships, including a Kirov-class battlecruiser and the Soviet-era cruiser Mikhail Kutuzov, now a museum ship. The mix-ups drew mockery online and highlighted the importance of checking images before posting official tributes.
