When I was a Private I was RTO and then driver for the 1SG.  I knew the radio 
frequencies and guardpost passwords and as the driver I knew movement orders 
about 3 hours before the rest of the unit.  Those are tactical pieces of 
intelligence that an enemy could use.  I have no illusions I could last more 
than a few minutes under the care of a good torturer.

Every Private probably has a wealth of situationally valuable tactical 
knowledge.  For example, the Private humping the M-60 probaly knows the 
platoon's reaction tactics that would be valuable to know to set up an ambush.  
The Private driving the 1SG knows the location of the fuel and ammo dumps, 
field kitchen, maintenence point and supply depot.  The gun bunny Private knows 
exactly what rounds his battery was issued.
