The US sailors who were detained by the Iranian navy last winter provided their name, rank and serial numbers - and pretty much everything else their captors demanded, the US Navy said in a blistering report Thursday.
The 10 crew members, captured at gunpoint in the Persian Gulf on Jan. 12 by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, improperly revealed passwords for laptops and cellphones and even sensitive technical details about their two ships, including their top speed, capabilities and missions, the report said.

The Navy report blamed the incident on a combination of poor planning, clueless leaders who did not properly consider how risky their actions were, a lack of crew oversight and low morale.

We need more gays in the military ... more sensitivity training ... more diversity training ... less sexist job titles ... more understanding for people who self-declare a new gender identity ... less discrimination when it comes to choosing bathrooms and showers ... complete avoidance of all things that go bang-bang and boom-boom ... a more environmentally friendly green fleet ... and most important of all, more love, understanding and kindness toward our Muzzie friends!
The size, speed, armament and capabilities can be found in “Jane’s Ships” anyway...
Exchanging transgender fashion tips???
“low morale”
Well, then, continue beating them with diversity training until it improves.
Why is anyone surprised that the manly spirit of our military has been degraded by the purge of all of the actual men from the military? How do they expect the transgender freaks to perform?
Quote of the day.
I HATE that muzlim loving #### in the WH.
Considering they won’t declassify what happened, I assume torture was involved. Who’s going to endure that for Zero?
Something REALLY FISHY about this entire incident. Someone's being SHAMMED big time.
That type of detailed information should have at least cost a 10 million dollar donation to the Clinton Foundation, they should absolutely discipline some of those sailors for harming Hillary’s bank accounts.
Sometimes the stuff in Janes etc isn’t 100 percent correct.
loose lips?
As I remember that was OK to give the enemy that information if you were captured-also your date of birth.
But nothing beyond that.
Any military people know what the present rules are? -Tom
There are still PLENTY of manly men in the Military. Obama has replaced most of the higher ups with his metrosexual puppets. The real men in the higher positions are just trying to outlast Obama and will come back with a vengeance if there is a CIC worth respecting. If they surface too early, they too will be purged. And there have to be some men of substance around after 1/20/16 to command and rebuild. Especially morale.
Duh. Everybody talks.
Oops....1/20/17.
They will scratch the enemies eyes out, that’s how they will perform..
Can a military m ale (who identifies as a female) give them his/her/its bra and dress sizes?
You’d be surprised how often intelligence analysts use those books.
Yes, as bad as this report is, I wonder what isn’t being reported. Is this misdirection from something else much bigger? Regardless, all of those culpable should send a nice long time in the brig and then dishonorably discharged.

"I am bound to give only my name, rank and service number"...
"I will evade answering further questions to the utmost of my ability".
