Yes, it is the Latin Vulgate (Luke version) of the encounter of the Roman Centurian with Christ. I think "man under authority" a bit better insofar as he, the Centurian, is pointing out that he knows what it means both to be subject to command as well as to command.
Anyway, your amusing and apt description of being an E8 immediately brought this to mind. :-)
