Linux was a poor choice for an O/S if the US intended to keep the source code private.

Do you honestly think that the decision-makers in the gov't would've failed to consider that point? The only place that source code is going is to the vendor (who alrady has it) and the customer, if they want it. The customer happens to be the US, so they can classify it if they deem it appropriate.

The source code will not be PD, or even publicly accessible.
