I'm a Personal Security Specialist for the U.S. Consulate in Iraq. I do their executive close protection for all of the Department of State government officials when they attend meetings out in the cities with the Iraqi government officials. I wear suits, body armor, an M4 and a Glock 19. Got the job right out of the Marines but I'm gone 8 months out of the year.
