    Reminds me of the POM-12 build..."This isn't really classified, but we're going to call it SECRET so that nobody leaks it to the media."  Isn't that illegal?  "Mind your business and stay in your rate."

    I'm hoping there were non JAGs party to that discussion...seeing as how they control every ROE decision, they surely are walking all the halls of power....

    Right.  As if marking documents have stopped people recently, anyway...

    Unfortunately, we've all been there with Dilbie.

    GOH, the link on the USAR Col was interesting. Truth to power career suicide apparently, but a metaphor for GOFO life - and inaction - by powerpoint. Unfortunately, his truth dovetails with so many other reports on the 'stan.

    CIA weenies, privates and Generals will leak to the media.  They are worried about action officers leaking to mil bloggers.
