A Baccalaureate in Counter Terrorism? Who the hell offers that one?!? I want one! I guess the equivilency in experience would be SEALS or Rangers and anybody who is worth a damn is already working in the field. Good luck filling this billet!

Too bad Dog is in Hawaii !

Seriously though, they'll find someone from the base down in tamp anyways.

BA in related field! Oh Puh-lease. How about time in the field tracking terrorists or counterIntelligence field work or Special Operations experience, or at least someone who knows how to think like the enemy and not like a beauracrat. I am afraid this is just more window dressing that will accomplish nothing otherwise. Like that Lt. Colonel who was a National Security Advisor but did not even know what a 1-time-code pad was. Yeah, he botched the intel. How about it Mr. North?
