Isn't that the Macross jet's insignia? How did you get this photo?

If you can read the description, it clearly says that Seaman Brian Wilbur took the photo, Facebook is where I got this photo. It is a US-Navy photo, released under public domain copyright. All photos taken by military personnel are under public domain.

I know that Brian Wilbur took the photo. I was asking how YOU acquired it - but I guess that's been answered now. Is it allowed? I mean this image is by the US Navy, after all, so shouldn't there be any prohibition from spreading certain materials concerning the military such as this to the public? Just asking.
