(I have heard of none in my native country Not all DoD jobs require clearances. The simulator job I'm working on had 2 foriegn nationals working on it a year ago (out of about 10 developers). Foriegn nationals *can* get low level clearances too. As long as the stuff they need to read can be marked "Secret", rather than "Secret - NOFORN" they ought to be OK. Naturalized citizens can even get access to the NOFORN stuff. I worked on a COMSEC (COMmunications SECurity - military encryption) job on which 3 of the 12 software developers were refugees from communist countries. -- T.E.D. http://www.telepath.com/~dennison/Ted/TED.html Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/
