Lewdog Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 Even with the after glow of Bin Laden's death still in American's minds, word comes that some Navy Seals, one of which was part of the raid team that killed Bin Laden, has be reprimanded for providing classified information to a video game maker. I don't remember Ronald Regan punishing anyone from Fort Knox, where several people learned how to drive a tank, for leaking classified information to Atari for the classic Tank.

The official, who discussed the matter on condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the case, says the seven received what the military calls "nonjudicial" punishment on Wednesday. They are alleged to have provided the information to the maker of a video game. The official says four other SEALs are under investigation for similar alleged disclosures. The punishments were first reported by CBS News. [/quote] http://news.yahoo.com/source-7-navy-seals-punished-secrecy-breach-011057932.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mullichicken25 Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 Divulging classified information is incredibly stupid, can incredibly dangerous, and is incredibly easy not to do. Additionally, I dont think that the operation of a tank is classified, however Im not sure about during Reagan's time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
