Do it!  I was thinking of applying.  But my resume isnt up to par for them.  MoFo's make bank.  They have some really sweet opportunities to see the different assholes if the world in all thier glory.  Itd be interesting and possibly exciting/dangerous. 

the McArthur is their newest vessel.

they sent me a bunch of literature, specks and crew requirements to me.   i think they need a captain for the crew because, we, they, are hard tom come by.   personally i would prefer tactical but that may not happen.

i thought you despised them?

Alot of people despise PMC's.  They consider it war profiteering.  I simply think of it as proactive security measures and defense oriented offensives.  I dont like the cowboy attitude some possess.  But thats even in the Government militaries.  You cant escape it in that environment. 

i do have a problem with blackwater in Iraq, however i know what the piracy in the Indian oceans are doing and it needs to be stopped.  i am able to be a part of that.  honestly i am a bit board and miss the action.   the return to civilian life can be very difficult.  some of us just can't go back to doing nothing.  we need that excitement and being the tip of the spear.
