Works for me. — Dave Surls
…worked in the Philippines during the [Muslim] Moro rebellion of the early 1900s.
The report is that then Captain John ‘Black Jack’ Pershing of the US Army, captured some of the Moro ‘terrorists’. He had them tied to posts for execution by firing squad. As part the firing detail’s preparation for performing their duty, a pig was slaughtered in front of the ‘terrorists’. The firing detail coated their bullets in the blood of the slaughtered pig, then loaded their rifles and carried out their duty.
The ‘terrorism’ STOPPED.
As a result of his actions, Captain Pershing was re-called to Washington and promoted to General.
