"It is simply unacceptable for any member of the military, or
civilian, to discuss these kinds of classified details -- especially
with the media."

WASHINGTON -- Veterans of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan of
VoteVets.org today wrote to top Defense Department officials, calling
for an investigation into leaks of classified details regarding the
deployment of Track Palin, the son of Vice Presidential candidate,
Governor Sarah Palin. Numerous outlets have reported the date and
location of Palin's deployment, which compromises operational
security. The source of the leaks would be acting in violation of the
law, and putting troops at unnecessary risk, and could be prosecuted.
