The classification of "Confidential" is rare these days.....although I guess NATO still uses it....but it is something not often seen.....well at least in my experience.
That was in 1993

Then there's "RESTRICTED" which we used to reckon meant "restricted to military personnel - the enemy can have copies but make sure you keep it away from the civilians"

People can also be granted a "confidential" security clearance, although it's extremely rare and is probably only due to circumstances that would require a downgrade from a previous "secret" clearance. One of the majors in my unit has a confidential clearance; I discovered that at my last battle assembly, so we're working on getting him upgraded. Not sure what circumstances prompted that; he was a little surprised by it too. I'm pretty sure he would have had a secret clearance before. Recent changes to the regulation has greatly reduced the number of MOS's that didn't previously require a security clearance; almost everyone is going to be required to have at least a secret clearance now. At least in the Army; I don't know about the other branches. I've actually got 111 folks in my entire brigade (including subordinate units) that need clearances, so I've got some work to do.
Setting that aside, however, it doesn't change what others have said. You can have a fairly high level clearance and yet never come into contact with the really high level stuff. So for Ms. Gallop, I'm not impressed by her "Top Secret". Does anyone know what she did while in the military? Or what her MOS was?
A late starter in the reserves. "Royal Australian Engineers" which includes the Field Engineers and Construction Engineers. Under old fashioned 'conventional warfare' the former were the combat engineers and the latter the behind the lines or communication zone engineers. The AU (and UK) armies have another Corps of engineers - RAEME - the electrical and mechanical types. Similar split up - they maintain every bit of machinery.LOL Nice....
You were in the Auzzie military, is that correct?

There was a set of double doors that had blown, that had gotten blown out. And, so, I went in through there, and, started yelling for people.
And, we started working together to pull people out of there. One of the things that MR. COLFELDER actually handed me a, what I, for a minute, I thought were a bunch of rags, but, actually, it was a baby. And, then, come to find out that, you know, the mother was also, was also there. Apparently, this lady had brought the baby in for her office folks to see him, kind of thing.
I proceeded to go around the back of the fire truck and into this area that had a door there just to the south of where the fire truck was parked. I have never seen these doors open. But I think what had happened -- they were huge, big, wooden doors and they're all around the building. These doors did not have any handles on them as I recall on the outside. And there was like a set of steps, maybe two or three steps high that went up to this area though that went right up to the doors . These doors were completely gone. They were probably blown out of the building.
OMG! They were blown! Obviously wired with explosives as the word can't mean anything else. BTW, Why are so many doors labeled "PULL"?There was a set of double doors that had blown, that had gotten blown out. And, so, I went in through there, and, started yelling for people.
Re: "Career army officer"
Attention to detail is lost on these idiotic morons. Dwayne Deets can be thrown in that same category. I really am amazed that someone with such an astounding lack of attention to detail has risen so far up the ladder of success in such a technical field. It convinces me that his areas of responsibility really weren't that important or critical in the technical minutia of NASA work, or that this particular branch of NASA research was really insignificant in the grand scheme of things.
The onset of PTSD can be rather sudden. I thought Rosie O'Donnel was funny up until the next time I saw her on TV after 9/11.we have to remember that being sane and competent at one time is no guarantee of that later in life. Mental illness is a terrible thing.

Probably didn't take long for Ms Gallop, either.

Gallop v. Cheney, Rumsfeld, and Myers will be heard by the United States Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit
on April 5th, 2011, at 11 a.m.
I found what is apparently her lawyer William Beale doing a radio interview with Kevin Barrett earlier today, after the hearing at the top of this page:
http: // noliesradio. org/archives/32320
... Beale appears about 23 minutes into the show ... still listening ... doesn't sound like it went well for him. Initial discussion seems to be about a Judge John M. Walker on the panel (of three judges) hearing the appeal, potentially related to that "other" "W."
Says he had filed a motion to disqualify Walker, court denied it, ... moved for continuance to review that denial ... denied ... made arguments. "there it is, we did the best we could" ... also says the court asked him a lot of "impertinent and demeaning questions."
"You take a look at him, and he's a Bush ..."
Apparently no actual decision came from the proceeding as of now, Beale says a fed judge can decide whatever he wants, this afternoon, years down the road, whatever ... assumes they will affirm the judgement of the lower court. Beale says there are other avenues for appeal he can take ....
