After making a holiday visit to US troops in Iraq, Donald Trump posted a video on Twitter of himself posing with Navy Seals – apparently revealing the special ops team』s deployment in the country, which is typically kept secret.

在對駐伊美軍進行了一次假期訪問後，唐納德?特朗普在推特上發布了一段自己與海豹突擊隊合影的視頻——這顯然是透露了美國特種部隊在伊拉克的部署——然而這一點通常是保密的。

Trump』s video shows him with service members who appear to be part of Seal Team Five, whose faces are not covered or blurred, Newsweek reported.

據《新聞周刊》報道，特朗普上傳的視頻顯示，特朗普與似乎是海豹突擊隊第五分隊的成員在一起。而他們的臉部沒有被遮住或者模糊化。

Defense department officials told the magazine that information about where Seal teams are deployed is almost always classified. Trump, as commander in chief, has the authority to declassify the information, but typically the faces of individual special operations service members are blurred in official photos and videos to shield their identities.

美國國防部官員告訴該雜誌，有關海豹突擊隊部署地點的信息幾乎總是保密的。但作為最高指揮官，特朗普有權解密這些信息，然而通常情況下，特種作戰部隊個別成員的面孔會在官方照片和視頻中被模糊化，以保護他們的身份。

Trump arrived in Iraq the day after Christmas, having faced criticism for not visiting US troops deployed overseas. His visit was shrouded in secrecy, and reporters accompanying him were required to agree to keep the details of the trip under wraps until the president finished giving remarks to a group of about 100 troops, mostly US special operations forces deployed for combat operations in Iraq and Syria, according to a pool report.

特朗普在聖誕節後第二天抵達伊拉克，他因未訪問部署在海外的美軍而受到批評。根據一份隨行採訪供稿顯示，他的訪問是保密的，陪同他的記者被要求籤署保密協議，直到總統結束對大約100名士兵的講話後才能進行相關報道，而總統此次訪問的其中大部分是部署在伊拉克和敘利亞參與作戰行動的美國特種部隊。

Trump posed for a selfie with Navy Lt Cdr Kyu Lee, who said he was the chaplain for Seal Team Five, based out of Coronado, California, the report said.

報道稱，特朗普與海軍中將基爾?李合影留戀，李中將稱自己是駐紮加利福尼亞州科羅納多的海豹突擊隊第五分隊的隨軍牧師。

「At one point Kyu Lee, told Trump he was the chaplain for Seal Team Five. Lee recalled Trump telling him: 『Hey, in that case, let』s take a picture,』」 the report, written by Time』s Brian Bennett, said.

《時代周刊》的記者布萊恩?班尼特寫道：「在那個時候，基爾?李告訴特朗普，他是海豹突擊隊第五隊的隨軍牧師。李回憶起當時特朗普對他說：『嘿，那樣的話，我們來拍張照片吧』。」

Trump posted the video to his Twitter account from Air Force One after the plane left Iraqi air space. It shows Trump flashing a thumbs-up as he and the first lady, Melania Trump, stand with troops who appear to be from Seal Team Five, and then shaking hands with the service members, who are outfitted in combat fatigues, helmets and night vision goggles.

在飛機離開伊拉克領空後，特朗普從空軍一號上把這段視頻發布到他的推特賬戶上。視頻中，特朗普和第一夫人梅拉尼婭?特朗普站在海豹突擊隊第五分隊的士兵旁邊，豎起大拇指，然後與身穿作戰迷彩服、戴著頭盔和夜視鏡的軍人握手。

「Melania and I were honored to visit our incredible troops at Al Asad Air Base in Iraq. GOD BLESS THE U.S.A.!」 Trump said in the Twitter post.

特朗普在推特上為這段視頻配文說：「梅拉尼婭和我很榮幸地訪問了我們在伊拉克阿薩德空軍基地令人難以置信的部隊。願上帝保佑美國！」

Malcolm Nance, a former US navy intelligence specialist, told Newsday that the video was a break from protocol that usually shields the identities of special forces members deployed in a combat zone.

前美國海軍情報專家馬爾科姆?南斯告訴《Newsday》，這段視頻違反了通常保護部署在戰區特種部隊成員身份的協議。

「Operational security is the most important aspect of personnel deployments. The real names, faces and identities of personnel involved in special operations or activities, are usually a closely held secret in a combat zone,」 Nance said. 「Revealing them casually, through an unusual media exposure even if it』s the commander in chief, would prove a propaganda boom if any of this personnel are detained by a hostile government or captured by a terrorist group. There would be no denying who you are and what you do.」

「行動安全是人員部署最重要的方面。參與特別行動或活動的人員的真實姓名、面孔和身份通常是戰區內的秘密，」南斯表示：「即使是三軍總司令，也不能通過不同尋常的媒體曝光，來隨意透露他們的身份，如果這些人員中的任何人被敵對政府扣押或被恐怖組織抓獲，這將被證明是一種宣傳熱潮帶來的後果。無論你是誰，你做了什麼，這都是不可否認的。」
