Personal information of almost 40k Marines made public by accident
May 24, 2023

 
The personal identifiable information of approximately 39,000 Marines, sailors, and Defense Department civilians was inadvertently leaked by a US Marine Corps unit, according to defense sources.

The majority of those affected are assigned to the I Marine Expeditionary Force, USMC officials confirmed.

“At this time there is no indication that any PII [personal identifiable information] has reached anywhere other than official government channels,” I MEF spokesman 2nd Lt. Sean Waterman, told Task & Purpose. “To be clear, nothing was hacked.”

On May 9, Combat Logistics Regiment 17 sent an email to 250 Defense Travel System travel administrators.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
