I wasn't meaning to label everyone. I quoted two individuals ... the quotes deleted for some reason ... dondk and someone else, who were complaining about a company having access to your personal records and felt that it was intrusive and wrong.

My point was, when I interviewed, the companies had 10 years worth of military reports, equivalent to about an 1/2 inch of loose leaf paper ... all from multiple military commands, numerous commanders, and many check airman -- some of who weren't very friendly.

It is very difficult and takes a lot of work to have a stellar military flying career as well as a stellar officer career. And personally, I think companines shoud have access to all of this type of information when it hires someone. They are putting a tremendous amount of responsibility in your hands.
