I know. Years ago I had a friend who was a paper pusher on the Coral Sea. He saw very little that was even close to classified but he wouldn’t talk about certain things if you water boarded him. That was probably ten years after he served so I would guess whatever he saw was old outdated info by then but he wasn’t going there.
