Interesting that a search looking for a copy of said directive on the
TSA web site using *SD1542-08-04-F *results in:

Leon - Looking for a copy of the directive to read - McAtee

I have been in and out of airports around the world since 2002. The
only place that I have had to take off my shoes was at Stateside
airports. It seems that the attitude of the TSA is you are a terrorist
and you have to prove to them that you are not. Places like
Singapore,Tokyo and Hong Kong the security is there, you can see it if
you look but it is not intrusive. They treat you like a customer that
they want to please so you will come back. An example of how silly
the TSA can be is that some airline pilots are licensed to carry an
automatic pistol in the cockpit. But, they are limited as to how much
shampoo they can have in their carry on.
