Does anyone have any advice for pursuing a career with Xe Services (Blackwater) or any other private security organizations like Triple Canopy? I've got 4 years of honorable service in the Marine Corps under my belt. MOS is 0352. One OIF tour. EAS'ing as an E-4 in a little over a month. Any advice, gentlemen?

there is a few people on here that are working for companys like that. But being a E-4 and one tour you really aren't going to get a job like that. I dropped paper work to triple canopy about 6 months ago and got a spot doing convoys and small details.

What's your prior military experience? and how do you like the contracting gig?
