And Fifthly(? LOL) if ANYONE starts flaming in this thread they WILL get booted from our website - goes for EVERYONE.
The thread started out as a question about absurd policies which may or may not have been true - so keep it there.
Thats excactly why I asked it the way I did, "tell me this is not true?" I was hoping some of the guy's and gal's from the UK could tell me if this is true or not, but not many have chimed in.

Secondly, I could find no Authoritative source to document that quote was attributed to GENERAL Eisenhower (his rank at the time it was refered to). I do find the quote to be very appropriate and relevant (for whomever actually said it) to the time of the related incident and in fact to much of today's general atmosphere.
It was actualy said by Eisenhower when visiting Dachau (concentrationkamp)...Dwight D Eisenhower
The last thing I want to do is hurt you. But it's still on my list.

found several of those types, but not one of the "Famous Quotes" pages showed it....... I could post a quote on a web page attrributing that Wedge said the moon was made out of sheeps wool, but that doesn't make it true. (though I swear I heard him say that to Joe LOL) I was looking for a recognized authority which attributed that quote to him.
I also hope that MNG and Gungho did not consider my post a personal attack on them, just a response to their posts.
I am root. If you see me laughing, you‘d better have a backup!

Not verbally but at least in intention he said it and it was documented in this letter (check second page, second article)
