AN Australian army officer in East Timor has angered fellow soldiers by revealing sensitive operational details in an open email.
"Gilly from Timor" sent the email to friends on June 4, generating fiery responses from other soldiers after it was widely circulated.
The unnamed artillery officer angered his infantry comrades by describing them as "dumber than I thought".
But it was his breach of operational security that really upset his colleagues.
The need to protect sensitive details of military operations is drummed into all recruits. But the officer ignored this and even urged recipients to forward the email on.
The email contains details of operations in East Timor, including his platoon's role in securing Parliament House in Dili.
"We have all been given the brief to disarm pretty much everybody in the country including the police and army," he wrote.
"So in the first day we cleaned out about 15 Glocks (pistols), heaps of pepper spray, batons, you name it."
He also related how his platoon was made the Ready Reaction Force. "I had to take out the RRF three times on the second day. Once in the arvo to help a Fed cop out, once to disarm three big gangs ... and scare them into being nice ... and then at 0700 (7am) we had to react almost the entire company to some big riots across the road."
"For the last four days my platoon has been securing Parliament House, which is a pretty cruisy gig. We run the outer cordon while the SAS look after the dignitaries," he also wrote.
He went on to discuss how his unit would secure Dili and retrain "corrupt cops and armed forces".
The revelation of operational details in the email angered other soldiers. One Townsville-based infantry soldier known only as Macca wrote a lengthy email in reply.
"I was waiting for news on exactly which sub-units were where and what they were doing," he wrote. "It was very helpful you mentioned them by name on an unsecure means."
