The reason that most agencies teach students NOT to put masks on their forehead is that in rough water it easily gets swiped from your face. Rescue divers are trained to watch for signs of distress and a mask on a forehead is a possible indication as distress makes a person often forget his/her training; however it could also be someone who did not pay attention in class.
