Exactly! As a professional, when employed by the Govt. to perform duties they have contracted you to, its in everyones best interest not to discuss the nature of your work. Even as a military member traveling abroad you are a potential target. By potential I mean that we don't get to choose what value we have to someone with an agenda. Civilians are a greater target working for govt. agencies, because they are more vulnerable and not as protected by the government. The less information you provide the more protected we all are.
