That is a rehash of the true story.

Some years back the Australian Armed Forces supply of condoms was diminishing and could not be replenished quickly enough from Aust suppliers.

Tender was put in from a NZ maker, and accepted.

The requirement was for extra large.

No problem, but when shipped the size, L10" x W6" was marked on packages.

In large font was added.

Made in NZ.

Size: SMALL .

True story.
