Really?

Say in WWII a German General with full knowledge of the defensive plans was captured on the eve of D Day. You would not, if it was your decision, have used ANY possible means to extract information from him?

Ideals are what define us, but how could they be worth, say, 20000 allied boys bodies lying dead on your conscience?
