Don't worry... it was just a Coast Guard Training dummy...

The human-like figure that can be seen in the back of a pickup truck on Google Street View's photos of Front Street is named Oscar.

Oscar isn't a human, though, he's a U.S. Coast Guard search-and-rescue dummy.

Capt. Nyx Cangemi, a Coast Guard spokesman, said members of the Coast Guard's local sector saw an article in the StarNews on Wednesday and identified the pickup truck in the photograph as one of their vehicles.

Know why they name the dummies "Oscar?"

 

Navy and Coast Guard ships carry a couple Oscars for man overboard drills. They're made with buoyant materials so they float. When a man overboard occurs, drill or real, the "O" (Oscar) flag is immediately hoisted and the ship's whistle is blown 5 times.

    • My tailoring green idea was not for him to be the starter but to add some value beyond just a developmental quarterback I think size speed is something Bryce doesn't have he has those and would immediately feel the fourth and one package and possibly red zone and some power packages for us
    • Do you have against Willis I believe you're around when we have the draft with corral and Willis were on the board and me personally I was banging the table for Willis as early as round one but a lot of people thought corral was better but it's amazing with a little coaching and time can do with me I always go with potential and upside versus oh the guy just plays football you know sometimes that's not enough
    • I know or needs and this probably isn't with a lot of people want but if he's available at 19 I don't think you can discount that he would be the best player on the board I think with 43 speed he's as fast as leggette. 63240 something he would stretch the field  Strike fear over the middle of opposing linebackers and also probably cure our long time history of no serviceable tight end since Greg Olsen I think a lot of needs like tackle maybe linebacker could be filled and free agency to the point like they did last year where we fix a lot of this and draft the best player we can on the board.  After his combine and the numbers in the 43-in vertical I'm not sure that he will be available but if he is I bet that he's highly considered what say you
