No big deal but it does tell us what they are interested in. Not sure why they don't rely on satellites for this, we do.

maybe the people that got caught are the worst spies ever? Not like they were attempting to hide wandering around, and I'm sure anyone that is interested already has it mapped out with satellite shots and building blueprints.

Always get a laugh when they talk about OPSEC for ship movements in Halifax, when there are dozens of harbour cams that look onto the base that you can pull up on the internet, as well as the ship movements website that shows their position. That's if you can't be bothered to walk along the road that overlooks the base and take a gander, or miss the big announcements they make for the arrival/departure for deployments.  But sure, the sailor posing on FB was the security problem.
