My mom worked at Fort Shafter, so did my father-in-law. I met my wife in a class in college. Later on, we come to find that my mom and my wife's dad were co-workers. I think my mom might have been some kind of brain. My dad told me that he was surprised to find out that her security clearance was higher than his. Having parents that were working in jobs like that means you don't really know what the heck your parents did - they never did tell me. Perhaps they made mistakes but I doubt that anybody got killed because of them. That's a good thing.
