Holly smokes! This Capt was leaking classifeds information to one of the Russian girls at the Golden Gate. She basically, asked "can I have some classified information?" and the idot gave some to here!

This may be the most interesting Songtan story I have read yet!

Quote:

An Air Force captain who didn’t tell officials two women asked him for classified information was sentenced Monday to 10 months in prison and dismissal from the service.

But under a pre-trial agreement, Capt. James L. Shank will serve just six months in prison. Shank, 43, married and a father, was a mission planner with the 5th Reconnaissance Squadron, which flies classified reconnaissance missions in northeast Asia.

He was obviously not thinking!

Quote:

A relationship developed between Shank and the woman. He allowed her and her mother to live with him in his off-base apartment sometime between Dec. 1, 2003, and June 30, 2004. That led to one of the counts of conduct unbecoming an officer.

In March 2004, Whittington urged Shank to tell her anything that would be classified. He provided her such information — for security reasons prosecutors wouldn’t discuss specifics — and didn’t report his contact with her.

Later, another woman from the former Soviet Union, Natalia Tchijova, claimed to be a former agent of the Soviet intelligence service, the KGB, and asked Shank for classified information. This time, Shank did not provide the information but failed to report his contact with the woman.

I recommend reading the whole story!
