I think Alan West, later First Sea Lord and Peer of the Realm once “accidentally “ dropped some secret papers on a path and, guess what, the next person along was a journalist. Didn’t do his career any harm. And then there was the VSO (or was it his PSO?) that left a laptop containing the entire Gulf War 1 plan to be stolen from a car boot whilst he browsed in a showroom. It seems that different rules apply at that end of the food chain.
