I've been following this one on baseops.
One word: EPIC!
It had hero shots of him on his motorcycle with the caption (something like) "Yeah, that's how I roll." There was a LOT more funny stuff too. I wish I had taken some screen shots. You should have seen the 6-9 messages left by baseops dudes saying "shut this down before your IPs see it!" "Have fun getting your ass beat at SERE!" Classic.
Good on him for taking the advice of the BTDT dudes. ****, I've spoken with Hacker(15E) on one of these forums and that conversation was all it took to knock the idea of keeping one of those things out of my head.

So you're going to slam a dude for doing something you thought about doing yourself? I don't know what's worse with this generation, the ones who feel like they have to put every d@mn detail of their lives on the internet or the ones who gleefully amplify the attacks on those morons who do.
I'd vote for the first group.

I have to think some of the comments here are out of line. I did see the kid's website, went to it expecting, from the initial thread comment, to find some future military pilot whining about how much he disliked the military. Did not find that. Only a kid ignorant of OPSEC. He seemed proud of what he was doing with his life and apparently wanted to keep family and friends informed of how he was doing. Also to document his evolution into a military pilot for others interested in the career. He had some tongue in cheek photos of himself, a picture of a stateside flightline that any dedicated threat would have no problem finding, and some other silly stuff about being a mascot in college. An earlier poster felt the need to call one of his female friends in uniform ugly- that was thankfully removed. Lame though. One team one fight. Other posters have felt it necessary to explain here, in an open forum, how military instructors enforce lessons about OPSEC. Did those so willing to provide that info here violate OPSEC? Gang sign in front of a T-38? Gimme a break. I've got photos of kids in uniform from my deployment doing the same thing in front of a humvee. Lay off the kid, he learned his lesson.

If you take the original link, copy and paste it into Google, and click on the "cached" link under the search result, you can see the original page if you're interested. Same for all the original content links. Here's the initial cached link:

Don't know how long Google keeps cached stuff...but they do it with everything put on the net. Be careful what you put out in cyberspace.
