Says he's an ambiguous Special Agent, Dignitary Protection Division??? Is he attached to the State Dept? Capitol Police, Other state or federal agency? Merely certified by coursework for some other brand of private protection service org?

There are several videos on youtube in which he, if this is indeed the guy, addresses issues of faith.

I guess it would be "tipping his hand" to a possible lawsuit and/or damages sought if he'd line out language in the application and affirmation by reason of his personal not educational background. SMH that he'd done the job for a while as an unpaid volunteer addressing the spiritual needs of prisoners, HAH! And I guess there's precedent for opening up the firm separation of Church and State for paid government contract occupational positions under a guise of compassionate services at every level? I guess next I ought to research the leadership of this contracted Christian org and just who they won't serve, huh?
