      It’s crazy because it’s nothing new.

      Like, one of the first things they told us at my training command was random women from another country hitting us up on Facebook is because they either want to steal our money or get info, and the person on the other end is almost certainly not the one in the pictures.

      It’s literally one of the first things they told us out of boot camp, but we all had clearances too and they took security ridiculously seriously there.

      But its a big way foreign countries figure out troop movements. Even a “I won’t be able to chat till August 1st” can be valuable Intel. And lots of people will give up waaaaay more info without even thinking.

      Even on the off chance she was legit, he’s a complete fucking idiot for going to Russia. I’m guessing this is a case where he knew he shouldn’t, so he didn’t say anything to anyone else.

      Because anyone in the military that heard his plans would have told him he was making a huge mistake.
