In the military it refers to mental disorder induced separation from the armed forces. In MASH Cpl Klinger is looking for a section eight discharge. It can also result in being locked up in a VA psych ward, too. Not a fun place.

Gentlemen, in my wild youth I held a reserve commission in the Army of the United States (Congress even accused me of being a gentleman) and know perfectly well what Section Eight can refer to. I was trying to be humorous, not very cleverly and quite unsuccessfully.
Andy, You should know by now that my ability at 'humorous' ranks in the lower levels a comprehension. As an ex-accountant/auditor, my view of the world is mostly black and white. Greys create all kinds of problems for me! Not your problem; it's mine totally.

We understand that,
but I believe the reference was English, not American.

@Lustig Andrei,
Accused of being a 'gentleman'. Did you beat the rap?
Writing postings after postings full of nonsenses won't cover up the true reality that science has debunked the holocaust hypothesis.
The same way the Vatican allowed the scientific investigation on the Turin Shroud, the holocaust supporters must agree with a scientific investigation on the rooms assumed as being former gas chambers.
(If one wants to cry or get mad about the consequences of the WW2, then curse Einstein and his relativist followers, who lied to you for years and years promising you a "traveling in time technology" to reverse time, kill Hitler and erase the war crimes so you can reunite back with your family again. This was a good big lie that lasted up to the 80's and perhaps 90's, and several Jewish survivors were tricked with that lie and died with that false hope. Even Rabbis wrote books explaining Genesis chronology based in a "dilatation of time", what a bunch of dumps! Lol)
Seriously, I surely agree with the scientific investigation on the rooms assumed as gas chambers to be promoted and fulfilled. I think that this is the right thing to do.
Science won't offend anyone. The Vatican didn't feel offended with the result of the data age of the Turin Shroud showed to be of recent centuries.
Science is science, and belief (religion) is belief.
On the case of the holocaust hypothesis, only science can be trusted to debunk or vindicate the claims of survivors.
