He swore this was accepted practice among his colleagues. I don't think I'll be trying it.
I've heard the same thing from a soldier once. I don't buy it. I think it's kind of like snipe hunting for civvies. How can it be sanitary to use a finger? If I were being shot at and had just one sheet, I'd simply not wipe. Things would get kind of crusty, but it would be better than the severe abdominal distress after eating rations with a dirty finger.
