jg, I’m not sure if you’re referring to active military or civilian engineers working directly for the military. I’m talking about civilian engineers working directly for the military. My dad is an engineer working for the Navy. He started working for the Navy in the mid 80s so he went through the early 90s you were referring to. He specifically told me that people like him don’t get fire. If the base is closed, he will be the first in line for jobs at other bases that he want to apply to. If he doesn’t mind, they can find him a job and relocate our family to where ever that is. That’s why I feel civilians working for the military are secure.
