Oh, and this was a flawed propeller that was ment to be discovered by "accident". And Neals probably part of this smart deception operation.
Now no one knows the truth.

They just happened to catch a pic of my blender on a foo foo drink day.

I'm so embarrased.

As a former US Submariner, im blown away to seeing this image and more pissed to those who took it and had the balls to post it on the internet. Why not take a picture of other countries hardware then our own.

I wish our Government would be tougher on things like this.

Is there no more pride in the US military and tying to keep our secrets safe?

Even if it was a setup, we got countries like China, ex-Russia and others still going after our most coveted secrets to bring us down.

People should be hung.

Don't Russia, China, etc. have their own surveillance satellites? I'm assuming they don't rely on Microsoft and Google for intelligence. The fault seems to me to lie on the dock workers, who should know better than to leave the prop unshrouded in the middle of the yard.

They probably had no idea it wasn't meant to be uploaded. Doesn't keep them from asking politely first, though.
