Let's see, I'll try to answer as much as I can.

1. I'm in the Navy
2. High enough for me to do my job, not any higher
3. Not with any black project - I launch Tomahawk missiles.
4. Yep - People who have that classification are not kept in prisons
you know...
5. I'm sure I DO have info being kept from me. I'm sure you do too.
However, keeping a few facts from someone is a lot easier than
conducting a cover up ans immense as the one we are talking about.
6. Bad. Very very very very bad.
7. Like I said, I can give you as much as I can. 

To give you a little background on the way classification levels work
(at least in the avy) : I work with a system that contains sensitive
information. So I obviously couldn't tell you how it works, or any of
the info held on the system. In the broader scheme of things I
wouldn't be ableto tell you about things like the deployment schedule
of my ship (When we are leaving, where we are going, or what ports we
will visit). But as far as simple info, yes I would be able to tell
you. I can tell you I work with Tomahawk missiles, I can tell you that
my security clearance is high enough to use the system and that I find
the work interesting. I can tell you that I am a second class petty
officer - middle management essentially. What I am saying is that many
people who talk about this seem to think that everyone in the military
is monitored on a 24/7 basis. They aren't. If the military finds that
classified info is being leaked, yes that person is arrested and put
in jail and rightfully so. I just think that maybe many people have
the wrong idea of what the government knows. They don't know anything
more than anyone else. Or if they do, the info is so broken up that so
many people know so many little bits of it that recombining the info
would be impossible.

Bottom line (Before I ramble on anymore) is that perhaps the energy
directed at the government should be redirected somewhere else. There
is obviously a strange phenom going on. Maybe if we all tried to
figure it out, rather than waiting for the govt to tell us all, we'd
figure it out...

I believe you, and I believe that you are sincere in what you are saying
here, but I do
have a few questions:

1. What part of the military do you work in?
2. What level of security do you have access to?
3. Are you with any sort of black project or special task force? Please name
it along with your commanding officer's contact details.
4. If you were part of such an organization within your section, would you
be allowed access to this communication utility?
5. Are you sure that you know with 100% certainty that you have no
information being kept from you? If you are, what rank are you?
6. If your militaries level of intelligence is so low as you elude, do you
view this as a good or bad thing?
7. Why should we believe you?
8. Lastly, do you have permission to give us answers to any of the questions
above if not all of them?

If you are all right with answering these questions honestly, then that is
all that matters to me. On the other hand, you don't have to respond at all
if you don't want to.
