TSA Provides Special Screening for the Military

The TSA is going easy on government trained killers (some of whom certainly suffer from post-traumatic stree syndrome and are much more likely than the general public to be a real risk to flyers.)

From the TSA blog:

All members of the U.S. Armed Forces, including those serving in the U.S. Coast Guard, Reserves and National Guard can benefit from TSA Pre✓® expedited screening at select airports when flying on participating airlines.

Use the official Department of Defense identification number as your know (sic)traveler number when making flight reservations. Accompanying family members ages 12 and under can be processed through expedited screening as well. Learn how to receive TSA Pre✓®...

U.S. Military Academy, Naval Academy, Coast Guard Academy and Air Force Academy cadets/midshipmen are now eligible to enjoy the benefits of the TSA Pre✓® expedited screening program at more than 120 participating airports when flying on 11 major airlines.

One out of four TSA employees is either a veteran, or is still currently serving in the U.S. Military, and we hold a deep respect for those who have served and sacrificed for our country.

But they will harass your grandmother...
