When i was stationed with the Navy in Panama. I got to store the suitcase which CINCLANT carries around with him in case the bubble goes up. No, I couldn't of started World War III. No OCP's to target. The trouble was that I had no SIOP clearance. No one stationed in Panama did. I have a friend who served on a frigate that for a few seconds had both keys to the Nuke ASROC console. ASROC, AntiSubmarine ROCket. is a rocket launched torpedo

What BOAT were you on.  

I was on the SSBN 618 Thomas Jefferson, for 3 yrs, from 1970-1974.  

I did my 1st patrol cycle as a driver myself,  later switched to Fire Control Ballistic, which is where I got started with computers.  

I would be the person to launch the Missiles and destroy the world,  had to have an ESI/SIOP clearance for that,  still don't know if you are supposed to let people know about them.  

Actually got to launch one, with a special Sonar warhead, for a test run.  

Now all I get to do is babysit Databases, and develop the programs for them,  still work with the Federal Government, and the Dept of Army.

If your background is clean these clearances should be no big deal. When I was driving submarines for a living I had TS, Crypto and COMSUBPAC Special Intelligence clearances. SI is above TS.

Very good question! I've wondered the same thing myself!

How would one begin the process of getting one? Or does it have to be government sponsored?

It is my understanding that it currently takes 1.5 to 2 years to get this clearence mainly due to events of 9/11. So, if you have one, it behooves you to keep it current.

They used to estimate these clearences were worth

an additional $10K a year for salary. Im thinking

at least $25K now. Alot of my friends that have

these clearances , whether they be DBAs, programmers,

Sys. Ads. etc, have standing offers for work in many

places around the world due to the fact these clearances

are very hard to get.

Also, the companies will not foot the bill for this

delay. The government usually has to approve all hires

where the individual is not cleared. From what I have

seen the government is in no mood to do this as of

late.

FWIW ! Mike

I don't understand the large number of positions coming out that require

a CURRENT Secret or Top Secret clearance. How can all these positions

be filled unless these company/entities start footing the bill for

people getting the clearances?!?

Actually no one who has been holds any SCI tickets can admit to doing

so :) One can say you have been the subject of a Special Backgroud

Investigation, and Extensive Background Investigation, a Full Field

Investigation even though 99.9999 times out of 100 these investigations

are done for just such access.

I suspect that this position will be at Wright-Patterson Air Force

base.
