An interesting bit of "intel" for you gentlemen.
Why military typically doesn't expose information even when retired.
Apparently you can be jailed for "exposing state secrets or court marshalled">
Why private companies don't expose

Using these two methods you can silence about 99% of the people that would otherwise talk.
This is basically why whistle blowers would need protection and yes I get not everything can be made public, national security etc.
