In reply to the discussion: Snowden: NSA employees routinely pass around intercepted nude photos [View all]olddad56
(5,732 posts)Kids often go visit the military recruiter right out of high school or during their senior year. The potential recruits take a host of aptitude tests. If they score high enough it the right categories (like off the charts), the military offers them training and opportunities that they can't refuse. When they excel in the training, they send them to language schools or other intelligence schools. Eventually, they wind up working for NSA, or some other not so popular branch of the government.
Kids often enlist at age 18 or 19, and by 20 or 21, they could be working for the NSA.
And if you don't think that that the NSA gets a lot of their staffing this way, then you deserved to be LOL'd at.
I know that I was doing highly secret work, as an enlisted person, by age 20, and I wasn't in that elite category that we are talking about here.
