Yep, as a man that served during that war. I am ashamed. I served in the navy. You know the one branch that got the DECISIVE victory in the desert. The aquatic warfare branch got the decisive victory in a desert war and we still didn't trust the government to tell its people. The rock had to tell people first. Don't forget that. That mission was suppose to top secret for 70 years

The weirdest things get classified for the longest times. My grandpa's ww2 service was supposed to be permanently classified because the Germans used a guided bomb to take out his troop ship, but they declassified it in the mid 90s- well after my grandma died.
