You can try running "gpart" on it.  That will try to discover the partitions.

Begin scan...
Possible partition(DOS FAT), size(14782mb), offset(3mb)
End scan.

Checking partitions...
Partition(DOS or Windows 95 with 32 bit FAT, LBA): primary
Ok.

Guessed primary partition table:
Primary partition(1)
    type: 012(0x0C)(DOS or Windows 95 with 32 bit FAT, LBA)
    size: 14782mb #s(30274944) s(8064-30283007)
    chs:  (3/60/1)-(1023/63/32)d (3/60/1)-(14786/39/32)r

That looks correct.  The stick likely came preformatted as FAT32.
Does "fdisk -l /dev/sdb" show any partitions?
If not, then run "gpart -W /dev/sdb /dev/sdb". This will write the discovered partition table to the drive and you can try mounting it.

I don't know what to make of this.  The defender totally zero everything, or are the files and directories actually out there but with nothing pointing to them?

The answer to that is not clear yet.
