What if one of high ranking officers were found relaying confidential information to other power? For sake of clarification: Evidence says that he was doing it for years and on purpose. So not a one time dinner with soviet military attache. Also no front page figure, just a paper pusher in the Washington.
The questions are, would such incident would be reported to press?
Had it been reported (or leaked to the press), who would be most likely be a scape goat for such blunder?
Save the war, what the consequences in relations with said power could be?
What would be consequences to his family?
Would someone protest outside the prison before he fries? Or would he be exchanged for another spy?
Would these be any different in the 1930's or 1970's?
Disclamer. It isn't anti-Americanism, just curiosity.
