If this were WWII and the bunker were outside Berlin, I think we'd all find it a little odd of the soldier to say, "Greetings from President Truman." With so many others who actually died for that cause, it would seem anticlimactic. It would have been something more manly, patriotic, and American, like "Uncle Sam told me to kick your Hun ass" before pulling the pin and diving into the foxhole.

McArthur (sp?) used to have his name invoked like that. Truman, no.
I think it has something to do with a soldier's perception of leadership.
