Cofty gave it to you:
“Today God’s servants are engaged in a warfare, a spiritual, theocratic warfare, a warfare ordered by God against wicked spirit forces and against false teachings. God’s servants are sent forth as sheep among wolves and therefore need to exercise the extreme caution of serpents so as to protect properly the interests of God’s kingdom committed to them. At all times they must be very careful not to divulge any information to the enemy that he could use to hamper the preaching work.“ Watchtower 1957 May 1 pp.285-286
and NeverEndingJourney gave you the "moral" justification:
"While malicious lying is definitely condemned in the Bible, this does not mean that a person is under obligation to divulge truthful information to people who are not entitled to it." - Insight on the Scriptures, Volume 2, pages 244, 245.
...but go ahead and make guesses about whether it was real and where the policy was delivered to the rank and file if FACTS aren't your cup of tea.
"I think I remember reading that someone said they thought it was about 14 inches up my descending colon, but I don't know what that is - I might not even have one - so you can quote me on this as an non-authoritative source with a flexible opinion."
