Well said Teal. What branch CT were you?



I badged into a SCIF many years . It sure doesn’t make you special anymore. They hand out TS sci clearances now like Halloween candy . It’s a joke. Thank Clinton and especially Obama for the greatly lowered standards



I had quite a few shipmates that were over 18 months in and had no clearance - was still being processed and investigated.

Had one shipmate lose it within a year at duty station. Dropped it damn fast for a hot piss test.

I don't know about today but then, it was what it was. Lots of people in A school sitting around waiting to find out if they could move on.

I for one know I could get cleared in any environment. Clean living.

And I only brought up the scif because the actual events of this collision- likely only discussed there.

Same with other events "during peace time".
