Oh really? If this is true then I think I should advise you to review your copy of the UCMJ with regard to protecting classified information... for your own edification, if not for the prosecution of these obvious criminals you speak of. You might also wish to review THIS message about OPSEC from the US Marines Administation.Oh yes they do my friend! Oh yes they do! I've been there and yes they do tell how the F-117A works and why. In the first gulf war there are some F-117A missions that have not been reported that are classified to this day I know about.
INTENTIONALLY PASSING CLASSIFIED MATERIAL TO
UNAUTHORIZED RECIPIENTS IS A CRIME, WHETHER TO THE MEDIA OR FOREIGN
INTELLIGENCE ORGANIZATIONS. MILITARY MEMBERS WHO VIOLATE THIS
TRUST WILL BE PROSECUTED UNDER THE UNIFORM CODE OF MILITARY JUSTICE
(UCMJ). DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE CIVILIAN EMPLOYEES WILL BE PROSECUTED
UNDER APPLICABLE FEDERAL LAW.
Have you reported this to the security officer of your former unit? If not, I must ask why not?COMPROMISING CLASSIFIED INFORMATION BY GIVING IT TO
ANY PERSON OR ORGANIZATION NOT POSSESSING THE PROPER SECURITY
CLEARANCE AND A BONAFIDE NEED TO KNOW IS A SECURITY VIOLATION AND
MUST BE REPORTED TO THE UNIT SECURITY MANAGER FOR APPROPORIATE
ACTION
Does that make it right, Mr. Nonchalant?Yes, I love this country and to think that this has never happen before ha ha LMAO!! This happens all the time. Its not new.
First of all, that is NOT for you to determine. Second of all, you cannot possibly know whether or not he has put ANYONE at risk, due to compartmentalized knowledge.Has my friends put this nation at risk? No.
Are you really this naieve to think that just because something happens all the time that it makes it less of a crime?Are you really this nieve as to think this has never happen before in the USA armed services? It happens all the time.
By my current assessment, I would say I know a lot more about the service than you do. I am beginning to wonder whether you really did serve. Why not tell me you unit and rank when you got out? That's certainly not classified. In fact, I might know some people who were/are in your former unit.The services is not like you see in movies.
I do NOT mess around when it comes to INFOSEC, pal.Come on.
, 1945 finds a strapping (but tender) five and a half month old Wyandotte rooster pecking through the dust of Fruita, Colorado. The unsuspecting bird had never looked so delicious as he did that, now famous, day. Clara Olsen was planning on featuring the plump chicken in the evening meal. Husband Lloyd Olsen was sent out, on a very routine mission, to prepare the designated fryer for the pan. Nothing about this task turned out to be routine.
Lloyd knew his Mother in Law would be dining with them and would savor the neck. He positioned his axe precisely, estimating just the right tolerances, to leave a generous neck bone. "It was as important to Suck-Up to your Mother in Law in the 40's as it is today." A skillful blow was executed and the chicken staggered around like most freshly terminated poultry. Then the determined bird shook off the traumatic event and never looked back. Mike (it is unclear when the famous rooster took on the name) returned to his job of being a chicken. He pecked for food and preened his feathers just like the rest of his barnyard buddies.
When Olsen found Mike the next morning, sleeping with his "head" under his wing, he decided that if Mike had that much will to live, he would figure out a way to feed and water him. With an eyedropper Mike was given grain and water. It was becoming obvious that Mike was special. A week into Mike's new life Olsen packed him up and took him 250 miles to the University of Utah in Salt Lake City. The skeptical scientists were eager to answer all the questions regarding Mike's amazing ability to survive with no head. It was determined that axe blade had missed the jugular vein and a clot had prevented Mike from bleeding to death. Although most of his head was in a jar, most of his brain stem and one ear was left on his body. Since most of a chicken's reflex actions are controlled by the brain stem Mike was able to remain quite healthy. In the 18 MONTHS that Mike lived as "The Headless Wonder Chicken" he grew from a mere 2 1/2 lbs. to nearly 8 lbs. In a Gayle Meyer interview Olsen said Mike was a "robust chicken - a fine specimen of a chicken except for not having a head." Some longtime Fruita residents, gathered at the Monument Cafe for coffee, also remember Mike - "he was a big fat chicken who didn't know he didn't have a head" - "he seemed as happy as any other chicken." Mike's excellent state of health made it difficult for animal-rights activists to garner much of a following. Even now the town of Fruita celebrates Mike's impressive will to live, not the nature of his handicap.
Miracle Mike took on a manager, and with the Olsens in tow, set out on a national tour. Curious side-show patrons in New York, Atlantic City, Los Angeles, and San Diego lined up to pay 25 cents to see Mike. The "Wonder Chicken" was valued at $10,000.00 and insured for the same. His fame and fortune would earn him recognition in Life and Time Magazines. It goes without saying there was a Guinness World Record in all this. While returning from one of these road trips the Olsens stopped at a motel in the Arizona desert. In the middle of the night Mike began to choke. Unable to find the eyedropper used to clear Mike's open esophagus Miracle Mike passed on.
No, I asked you that question. And I also asked for your unit. Inquiring minds want to know!Hell why don't you tell me what my rank was in the USMC?

That's absolutely right, Freud. In fact, to be specific, Title 18 Section 798 - Disclosure of Classified Information is some interesting reading... to the tune of $10,000 fines and imprisonment of not more than 10 years, or both.In addition to the ones cited by RMT, you might also want to take a look at Title 18, U.S. Criminal Code.
