Everyone discharged since 1975 (including my husband) has had their personal data compromised because some IDIOT took it home on a laptop without authorization.

Full story here.  Mike Hampton has more, including a letter that will be sent to affected veterans(h/t Jawa Howie)

1 I also have links that won't expire in 30 days. Seriously though, this is a horribly serious security breach, and everyone who might be affected should take steps now to ensure they're protected against identity theft.

2 Pehaps he was just trying to get more work done to help the Veterans(including me) and provide better service to us. The fact that he made an error of judgement in doing this does not make him an IDIOT.

Even though the Hilton asshats threw them out, it's not over for Fran O'Briens.

Chuck had a great idea of how we can get the word out about how heartless the Hilton people have been.

Go to Orbitz, Travelocity, Hotels.com, etc. and leave a review of the Capital Hilton on each page.  Tell the story of the dinners at Fran's, and what you think of Hilton's corporate decision.  Be sure to tell them that you will never patronize any of their establishments again.  Believe me, their PR people DO read the reviews at these sites since thier customers utilize these sites!
