yes sir, not the best company to work for, but they don't randomly cut your pay in half or tell you to go home. plus, this may sound crazy, but i love being overseas, it's the most conducive environment for highly aggressive, highly skilled men

i'm a PSS-M which is personal security specialist-medic. I provide security to whomever/whatever my mission is and also the medic in case of any of my guys get hurt. in laymen terms it's referred to as a mercenary

yup, they started wars and then sold weapons to the side of the highest bidder, then opened back up as Z and had the same problem. just like any fortune 500 company changing the name always fixes the problem
