[QUOTE="Eye-level, post: 146750, member: 6548"] Apparently CT's are required to have an extremely high security clearance I suppose because of the intelligence gathering stuff. I was told by my Company Commander in boot camp Chief Brown a Seabee that spooks had security clearances so high level that they would probably be allowed to talk to the POTUS personally. He also told me that typically they were guarded by Marines...I don't know though Chief Brown was definitely a BSer. lol You and me joined about the same time then. I think my DD214 says my last day was like Sep 8 1989...I'll have to get all that stuff out and look at it again. Last time I had my Navy files out my son was about 12 and he was like really? I said really... He has always wanted to be a soldier like his pa...had no clue his dad was once a squid...lol My grandfather was a BM in WW2 and Korea and Naval reserves that and the fact I just wanted to get the hell out of the house at 18 and see the world is why I joined but it turned out to be like a trip to boot camp and then back home and boot camp sucked balls IMO LOL I think they ought to make every American young man and young woman go through boot camp after they graduate. I know it helped my bronco @ss out a lot. The Navy has always used the Nikons just like Nasa...they are good cameras. :) You are an officer aren't you Glenn? What sort of job do you do? [/QUOTE]
