Navy E-3 on super secret classified mission?

Anyone think this kid exaggerated his story? Super secret mission on an aircraft carrier?

http://www.myfoxmemphis.com/story/25...#axzz313hbFzfn

He's only been in the service for a total 2 years, but his parents say it seemed like forever because they were not able to speak with their son on his last mission.

So, they set up their own covert operation.

And if all the people didn't give away the closely guarded secret, all the praise and proclamations certainly made it clear, Mount Laurel, New Jersey, knows how to welcome home a Navy E-3 Seaman.

21-year-old Nick Braciszewski's family hadn't spoken with him, not even skyped with him, since he was deployed 9-months ago to the Middle East.

Nick was on a mission that he couldn't talk about.

Two other Navy Seamen who served with Nick were also there as part of the surprise.

They too were stunned by the outpouring of appreciation in Mount Laurel.

The men were stationed aboard the USS Harry Truman aircraft carrier out of Norfolk,Virginia.

Maybe he was NCIS trying to bust some SEALs trafficking in slightly used French weapons...

Yeah, he's woofin shit but in truth they are not supposed to say what, where, when as any deployed unit should.
He's translating that into a 'secret mission' that and he didn't want to Skype home for some reason.

I guess the Harry Truman has more problems than just some guy talking about a super secret mission.

Dear Mom

"...my mission is so secret the leader (Admiral Brig) is the only one who can write to you about it. His nickname is 'Brig Officer'. Sorry. Oh, BTW, the mission demands a special diet of bread and water but will be over in another 3-days. Keep this totally quiet, especially from Uncle Knuckles. Love, your bouncing baby boy."

(sigh)
