US mil spam

One of BoingBoing's readers points to U.S. Military spam.

Now I don't know that I need to go one way or the other in the political sense on this blog since it is just about spam. But I will agree that it is a bit creepy when the military resorts to a technique that desperate scam artists use on the net to get people to buy into their product/service.

Also, do note the headers of that message - it really was from a .mil address/server.
