Naval officer faces military jail - UK & Ireland, Breaking News - Belfasttelegraph.co.uk: "Able Seaman Eoin Gray was also discharged from the Defence Forces after he admitted breaching strict rules by sending mobile phone texts to his girlfriend with details of State vessels at sea.
The 24-year-old from Dublin had originally been accused of five offences, including conspiring to smuggle cocaine into Ireland, but the charges were later dropped.
The dramatic move came after the sailor's lawyer, Ross Maguire, asked a court martial in McKee Barracks Dublin to read out the single charge for a second time. Gray pleaded guilty to the charge of knowingly and without due authority disclosing details on Navy ships at sea between December 4 and 14 2008 while the other four charges were withdrawn."
