Everyone who posts need to think about the lives of soldiers out in the field, so don't endanger them ok.

I do understand where you coming from Kato, but this option has one flaw in it. If people have an option to get posting sent to their email. Deleting a posting doesn't work to well, since people already would have the info to retain in their email box.
The only way to continue with this thread would be limit it so the posting would have to go for approval which add work load on the Moderator(s). What one would feel comfortable with allowing other will may not.
Ambiguity is a very thin line. I remember when we were at the other hosting site, this would pop up every once and great while. Sometimes we all forget there are operations still going on and trying to help other who may not have first hand knowledge of things, and in trying to help them understand cross the line.
Honestly PM and Email is the only the way to relieve the burden from Moderator(s) and place it back on the people who would be posting such thing.
For those who ask for such information, just remember what responses you receive may not be as complete as you think they should be. Well it because there are too many things that could be used. There is already too much publish info out that people if they know where to look can find and use. Much like the posters that use to circulate during WWI and WWII loose lip have at time cost other their life.
Which I am surprise the government isn't more active than not. I mean even now one can find OOB of current formations. I have seen on other sites where people frequently post this information and narrow it down to what could be considered an act of treason in another day and age of the past. Just my thoughts on it...
