Nice! Good for you brotha! I'm talking (email) with SOC and triple canopy right now. But its going soooooo slow.

Yea triple canopy is super slow at replies. Their criteria is insane. When I spoke with the guy he said I had to have a deployment within the past 12 months to do PSD. I had already past that so I went for armory. I got certified through the corps as an armorer and they said they didn't count that certification. They wanted a license through Glock or Remington.

I had a bro pulling strings for me with Aerotek since he already worked for them. Good luck getting on bro. Whats your resume looking like?

My resume looks good. I actually talk to triple canopy. Two spots I applied for wouldn't work because they require a "active clearance" mine ran out years ago. I applied for another spot last week with them for a armed guard position. Won't be nearly as fun, or as much pay as I want. But they will get me a clearance that way. Looking now for companys out side of the middle east that don't need a clearance. There's not as many though.....

Talk to the Marines again but they don't have short contracts. The Army does offer a one year contract for prior service. So I might go in for one year just to get a security clearance.

I have been thinking about doing the unthinkable and "going back"!! I recently got an offer from an ODA group and been thinking about taking them up on it. Have I forgotten all the pain??

my brother in law did.. he was one of the 1st 500 that died in Iraq...

don't do it..

my sister and her son miss him very much

on the other hand she's Almost spent the $500,000 in death benefits but she gets to go to college for free and so does he, and she gets social security for the boy til he turns 19..

oh and she's moved on living with another Joe giving him 2 children but not getting married to him because that would terminate the benefits..

but you know..

oh his mom misses him as well, his 3 sisters and 2 brothers, it's a mess at christmas and thanksgiving time.. but you do what you think will make you happy..

I held a S when I was in the marines and it expired when I discharged. I got on with Aerotek and had to go back through all that shit again with JPAS, NCLC and the OPM to get it back. for PSD with Aerotek I only needed a S.

Irrelevant. I was shot 5 times in two deployments and wouldn't hesitate about going again. Dying is an understood risk assumed by all. I lost my brother on our birthday Apr 7 of this year in Helmand province, same place I was hurt in. But that still doesn't change my outlook on it.

Doubtfully a TS. Unless you're PSD for embassy or something like that. I was gonna do MSG duty as a B billet my last two years in and had to get a TS. I never did it but just the application process was insane.

I know of a company in the states that as long as you can obtain a clearance they will do the paper work and once you get your clearance they will hire you, everything from a C up depending on the job. Not sure what you expect pay wise though. Last time I looked they had several jobs open at several different facilities in the states
