I am sorry, but it doesn't really add up to me.

What I wonder is, don't you have any kind of sworn oath to secrecy while actively serving? Are active military allowed to keep the public abreast of current oddball missions/sightings etc? Seriously I am not trying to be disrespectful or start anything, I'd just like to know the answer to the above. Thank you.

Sorry imo it doesn't hold water, who in their right mind would use their company computer to tell classified military info.

To current/ex military? What are the possible ramifications for an offense like this? Dishonorable discharge, and what else? Brig time?

The only thing they can get him on is lying about not having told anyone.
Most likely an article 15 (slap on the wrist) vs an all out court martial.

Ok I stopped back to my barracks on my back to work. I just came from the "de-brief". Wow, it wasn't anything serious just some top brass asking questions like "Did it touch, scratch or bite me." They asked me if I got a good look at it... I told them no to all of the above. There were at least 25 other Marines in the back room waiting. I told this all to the Navy Corpsman that was checking me out last night. They asked things like "How close was I to it, how much time was I "with" it." Things like that. Then they asked me something that surprised me. They asked if I had told anybody about the events of last night. Of course I told them no. So, I will leave this post up here for a few more days until I delete it. I dont need this coming back on me. Oh here is something funny, when I got to work this morning the HQ was buzzing with things like "Oh did you hear about the monkey loose on base last night?" and my boss, a 26 year master sergeant wanted to know every last detail when he brought me into his office. What a jerk, he told me if I didnt tell him everything he could send me to the brig for disobeying a direct order. He started making all these threats. I told him as little as I could. I wish I had the de-brief earlier so I could of said "Sorry Master Sergeant, I am under direct orders not say anything." Ok, got to run, Ill check back after work.
