True. I don't know if I believe it or not. I do know that TS-SCI cleared troops take their level of OPSEC and COMSEC pretty seriously. For this guy to keep a secret until he separated is not totally unbelievable. I only had a secret when I was active duty. Still I had to get debriefed every time I took trips to Moscow to load stuff on a C-5 for a flight to Nevada. It was part of the Russian INF treaty. I had to tell them what I did, who I talked to, what I had for dinner every day I was there, even if it was only for 24 hours.

Usually the flight crew and officers got a fucking tour of Red Square while us enlisted peons did all the work on the flight line.
