generally it is saying: The US Army doesnt like people cheating/hacking within their game "America's Army". They claim this isnt just a violation of terms of license, but also abuse of Programs and Computers of the US Army. Since the Cyber Security Enhancement Act (CSEA) in the US, you can go to prison for that for your entire life.
Now the executive producer of the game, Phil DeLuca, admits in the official game forums that they cant control cheaters/hackers on the servers atm. But he said that, once "the army is woken up by this, it will implicitly hunt down the suspects". He makes a relation to WWII where the Japanese have learned their lesson. Cheaters should know that the FBI might be on their tracks soon enough.
