I'm sorry? Gracious? Unless the lady who had volunteered to feed a group
of hungry fighters Knew he was Jewish and ignored it, I can't see why the
individual with a restriction like his would have any call to be less than
gracious! The restriction was his, and it must be his responsibility to
check Before he sits down to eat. I agree he reacted as a gentleman
(Judaism got to be an old religion by being totally unforgiving of human
foibles).
