You know I had to look it up, EXDIGITATE.
It was not in my laptop dictionary. I tried google. It seems to be a military term literally meaning: Pull your finger out of your ass.
It is good to learn something new...at least every day.
Now i must assume you are/were a military man, I am not, and as you are aware of the chain of command it is most likely that the term you use is typically used by one of superior rank. True?
So if you are offering the commander and chief something besides courage I would think being more specific required.
Myself I prefer exskullate. means pull your... ah never mind.

HAHAHAHAHA I am taking your word on this so I recommended it. But I ask for more specificity in the future from our author, as you suggest.

intending to avoid any traps that might be laid by the Japanese. One group of POW's hurried the liberation along by painting "EXDIGITATE" on the roof of their prison - a word that the captors would not have known or used.
Obama needs to exdigitate on several fronts if he really wants his agenda to move forward in the face of the obstructionist Republican tactics. Most prominent is health care of course. With regard to WWLBJD, imagine a Senator pulling the stunt on a piece of legislation that LBJ cared about, that Lieberman has pulled on health care. If it were LBJ, to paraphrase "All The King's Men", that Senator's unborn great-grandchildren would wet their pants if they heard anybody say the word "filibuster". For all his faults, LBJ got historic legislation passed with fewer resources than Obama has right now.
