I hope at least he was paid in part by the services of a top dollar escort instead of something boring like money.
There are very few Chinese (or other cerebrally superior ethnic groups) in the military for the simple reason that the pay is too low for their standards.
On the matter of Bradley E. Manning. He was convicted of passing along classified info on the Secret Internet Protocol Router Network (SIPRNet) of the U.S. Army. These protocols can be changed very quickly. Manning was caught passing along classified info, but the damage was mitigated as soon as it was discovered. Manning will probably get life in prison. Heavy sentences must be imposed as a deterrent to treasonous acts. I am guessing this will also be the case with the RCN Sub-Lieutenant.One name: Specialist Bradley Manning.

General Erik Shinseki was both the Chief of Staff of the U.S. Army and also a graduate of the USMA.
If true the first might result in acquittal, the other three - I'm on the Crown's side.It's WAY too early to judge. All of the following are possible based on what little we know:
-- He was blowing the whistle on unethical practices by the Canadian military, by passing information to a foreign journalist
-- He was trying to "document" what really happens by passing information to a foreign journalist (e.g., wikileaks)
-- He handed over Canadian military secrets to a foreign intelligence service in exchange for cash
-- He was collaborating with a terrorist organization, e.g., passing valuable information on to the Taliban
We really need the facts before we can judge whether what he did was treasonous or whether the police are going overboard.
Others as well. However, the Army Chief of Staff is the "capo de tutti capo".There was also a MAJOR GENERAL DEWEY K.K. LOWE of the USAF[/COLOR]
It is a mess!My favorite part of the article:
“When it comes to signals intelligence, the league of English-speaking people are joined at the hip … you’d have a hard bargain trying to sell Canadian secrets, wouldn’t you?” said John Pike, director of the GlobalSecurity.Org website, in an interview. “He’s going to have had access to whatever the Americans have access to.”
Holy Cow, according to the Globe and Mail Sub-Lieutenant Delisle is a graduate of the RMCC!

You don't believe that ethnic Japanese in Canada and the U.S. count in your words as a "cerebrally superior ethnic group?"Shinseki is of Japanese descent not Chinese...
Funny, then, that the PLA employs so many people?There are very few Chinese (or other cerebrally superior ethnic groups) in the military for the simple reason that the pay is too low for their standards.

From what the CBC reports he was privy to intelligence from Canada, Australia, the U.K. and the U.S.A. and was loading vast quantities of information onto thumb drives.In his recent position as Sub-Lieutenant me may have been privy to some minor sensitive information, perhaps some RCN equipment in use, radio and communications frequencies and codes.
