How much, and for how long? 385389[/snapback] Requires an actual intelligence background, preferably military. Minimum of 1 year to 18 months. How much? Whatever you can get out of them.

Ghost of BiB Posted July 20, 2005 Author Share Posted July 20, 2005 Need to fill these, as well. Anyone feeling adventurous, these are pretty well always open. Individual must be knowledgeable of Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD)/Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and High Explosive (CBRNE) and operational support subject matter areas. Must be able to physically maintain a world-wide deployability status for support to the CMATs and other no-notice, quick-reaction support missions. This will include the physical ability to draw and maintain field and chemical protective gear for field deployments; keep current the full series of deployable-status inoculations (to include anthrax, as required); and maintain an Official Passport. Individual must also be able to use and maintain a government-issued weapon for self-protection purposes, as required. Prior experience with rapid deployable teams is desireable.

If you are over there as a "specialist" and not working for some security firm or a position putting you constantly in the field, it's not a bad gig - as long as you're not an idiot and do stupid, predictable stuff. Just watch your back. I've been all over the place over there from Djibouti to several "Stans" and points in between, and I'm still around. Biggest hassles are a lot of hours and often not the best working conditions. That said, I recommend it for single people without deep ties - not because of danger but because of separation issues.

My point - Rich has already done his time unlike this slacker, and there is no reason on earth that Rich should volunteer again. I know you guys don't particularly care for Rich's views and I'm totally cool with that. My point to EC Jacknuts is that Rich has done his time, come up with something better to respond to him with.
