Kevin Poulsen, SecurityFocus 2003-01-16

"[S]ome companies are now posting incorrect (B\S) Information for security reasons "

Security reasons or not, the primary purpose of the .mil public sites is to serve the AMERICAN PUBLIC and the public should able to "Trust" any sites that our government has vouched. Without BSing, the DoD can provide accurate information yet can achieve tighter security, for an example, remove organization structures and site map with building numbers (public must know these?) from the web and provide one contact number for each .mil sites.

Also a first timer.
