Security is based on integrity
It's time once again to recount a story I overheard regarding a bank somewhere in the United States. The employee was contacted by a customer who was concerned that there was an issue at the bank due to the number of police cars surrounding it. Upon calling the manager, the individual discovered that customers had wandered in and were waiting in line. This is a very normal process for most financial institutions with the exception that it was a federal holiday and that the bank was closed. Yes folks -- the bank was closed, the lights were off, there was a big sign on the door and yet people were inside waiting to check on their money.
Navy (sea)story in celebration of Veterans Day
In late 1986 I joined the US Navy Nuclear Power Program as a Machinist's Mate, to serve my country and earn money for college. After nine months of classroom training I was deployed to upstate New York to learn how to run a nuclear power plant at a prototype facility. My training led me to being selected for a new school in nuclear chemistry and eventually being selected as an instructor at a new facility being built in Charleston South Carolina. It was the first time that a real submarine had been used in the construction of a training facility; only the best for our sailors.
