All around the outer fence were signs with a little stick figure man getting shot in the back. I seem to remember that it had "No Warning Zone" or something to that effect.

We started missing the Grandsons so my Wife and I flew out for a visit. He had a house leased in Aurora with a secure phone line. Sometimes, he would get a call at odd hours and speak with someone about a circuit problem or just get dressed and leave for the base. He told me that once inside, security police were in every hall and by every door. If you missed your door and badged through the wrong one, you went straight to security headquarters accompanied by two guards and two M16s. I couldn't work like that.
As scary as this seems, I'm glad our government, or at least our defense businesses, are doing something to protect our state secrets. I'd gladly undergo a 5-hour interrogation session for forgetting my ID card at home to protect the intellectual property of my American brothers. Well, I better get used to it because I am looking forward to a career in the FBI or DEA.
