Too bad it isn't as simple as that.
I've read a biography of Black Jack Pershing. He was one helluva soldier and a man to admire. I don't remember reading about something like this.
I see others posted links debunking this so I'll say no more other than that we need a leader, someone who thinks outside the box, who values life and has ethics. Pershing was such a man. They are a rare breed in 2008, maybe extinct.
