Found that guy's facebook. It does seem real, I mean the person seems real, but I still really hope they're doing this as a joke or something.

It looks like someone else posted this to the FB account, not the other way around.

The post is not by Facebook.

Here is the actual Facebook post, with photos (sv): https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=725135880838623&set=...

Is this Facebook?

Link to the account (requires login): http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100000838258266&sk=wall

There's literally thousands and thousands of posts. They don't actually make any sense, but they're spot-on grammatically, and a lot of WWII-era jargon. Google turns up nothing except people wondering what she is saying.

So what's going on here? Spies communicating? Some type of spam/SEO gaming? Rabbit hole for an ARG? Testing some kind of FB bot software?

I can't work out who would be incentivized to create this and what sort of purpose it could serve.

No it's not. This is Facebook PR.

The original Facebook post this is from is reportedly here [1] according to a comment on the linked Reddit page

The creator tries to pass themselves off as Facebook as well—"By FB", which links to www.facebook.com. Very uncool.
