    Possibility to leverage IT degree for Information Warfare?

    TS/SCI is still possible with a misdemeanor(s) on your rap +7 years. Your butt = smoke being blown up it. However, there are always extenuating circumstances... Just let them know. Bad days and bad decisions earn you wisdom in the long run.

    NAVAIR gets their $$$$$$$$$

    They've been modding the wing spars to extend whatever "life-expectancy" acronym you'd like to attach to it coupled with more and more RO-RO tactical gear. This will help bridge the gap with both airframe and personnel. I'd imagine a tailoring of the mission sub-set as a result until the P-8...
