6. I have a former colleague, whom I mentored

when she was a green new agent. I'm now retired and she's in charge of a Federal agency in Oregon. She recently had a vacancy and because of Veteran's preferences in Federal hiring, all the candidates were Iraq or Afghanistan vets. She said they all scared the shit out of her, and she thought that if she put them on the street with a weapon, she'd never sleep. She canceled the vacancy.
