1944年圣诞节前夕,艾森豪威尔接到蒙哥马利的一份电报,电文是:看样子你要欠我五英镑了。起初参谋人员以为这是重要军事行动的暗语,但艾森豪威尔真的找出五个英镑,派人给蒙哥马利送去。原来,这是一笔赌债。
Eisenhower received a telegram from Montgomery on the eve of Christmas 1944 on the e-mail: It looks as if you owe me five pounds. At first the staff thought it was an allegation of a major military operation, but Eisenhower really found five pounds and sent it to Montgomery. It turned out that this is a gambling debt.
