usaid
.
there are no security requirements for throwing money away.
there is no corelation between the armory and usaid. your argument is a big fail carry on.
There are two major isses here.
1st, angrymarine is right about not letting someone in to see classified information, but a higher-ranking officer can, and should put it in writing—or angrymarine should insist it be a written order. That way, angrymarine is not liable for any unauthorized disclosure.
angrymarine, I was in just this same situation 30 years ago and insisted my commanding officer put his order in writing and sign it, specifying exactly the information and documents to be released. He was pissed, and it could have destroyed my military career, but he did give the written order, and I obeyed, and allowed the viewing to go forward. I also asked for a copy for each airman under my command.
The other issue, and it is a very serious thing, is the over-classification of information. It is ripe with hiding criminal government actions by individuals who should be severely punished. If USAID information has been incorrectly classified with intent to hide, those officials need to be charged and put on trail, and jailed if found guilty.
I won’t forget the story of how a sailor took a picture of rack in a submarine and was court-martialed by the authorities for disclosing classified information and disobeying orders. That shit flows uphill, too.
