They are testing the: asfasfasdfasfdasdfasfasfasfsadffffffffffffffffffffasdfsfsafsfdwfgasdgbdfbgdsgasdgdsbdb defense system (the pentagon is a really big building).

The military does love a good acronym.

And a good backronym. If some system doesn’t have these letters starting its name, it will soon!

It only looks like a test. The DOD just activated all our sleeper agents in Asfasfastan.

More likely they use CMS, since it's the news section of the site, and someone simply clicked "Publish" too soon and forgot they did.

I suspect the author uses a qwerty keyboard.

I would go one further and suspect the author used only their left hand to type the message!
