Note: I had to remove a paragraph. Further, I've X'd out significant name and numbers.
Important Information from OASD(NII)/DoD CIO
Department of Defense (DoD) military, civilian and contractor personnel should not access the WikiLeaks website to view or download the publicized classified information. Doing so could introduce potentially classified information on unclassified networks. There has been rumor that the information is no longer classified since it resides in the public domain. This is NOT true. The subject information was not "declassified" by an appropriate authority and requires continued classification or reclassification.
If someone else asks you about the WikiLeaks material or the validity of this suspect information, remember that you can never confirm or deny the validity of leaked Government information. Any comment by you could be treated as an official confirmation by a Government spokesperson.
