Infamy?

This is coolbert:

Here some items of interest both with a military dimension to them. Thanks to Jungle Trader for the tips.

1. Missing.

"Pentagon Says Dozens of Afghan Soldiers Missing in U.S."

I might think these Afghan nationals taking advantage of a situation, not necessarily terrorists or sent agents of the Taliban. Persons for the most part merely wanting to participate in American society without sinister agenda!

2. Tennessee.

"U.S. Attorney's Office, Middle District of Tennessee: 'Eight individuals, including six Fort Campbell soldiers, were indicted by a federal grand jury in Nashville, Tenn. yesterday and charged in connection with a conspiracy to steal sensitive U.S. Army equipment which was ultimately sold and shipped to anonymous eBay bidders, including some located in foreign nations'."

In particular: "Many of these items were advertised as 'Army Special Forces' and U.S. Government Issued". Ft. Campbell the home base of a Special Forces Group and the Special Operations Aviation Regiment, both undoubtedly possessing top-of-the-line and quite possibly classified equipment! Stolen and for sale on the black market for which there is a thriving trade in such items.
