I know a V-force copilot who was told he would lose his PV if he married a Yugoslav.

I was once sent on an overseas posting where it was considered that I could be at risk of attempted compromise by a hostile intelligence service. As part of the pre-posting preparation, I had to read an extensive file about the known compromise attempts by that service. I remember it being a really entertaining afternoon's read. Typically they used to use a combination of alcohol, disinhibiting drugs and hidden cameras to film a target in varying degrees of undress and compromise, with the objective of later confronting the target and embarassing him/her into cooperation. One I remember well was the tale of a respected and senior Japanese engineer who, though happily married and with a family, was known to enjoy a varied and colourful nightlife, so was considered to be a harder target than most. So he was entrapped into a very colourful sado-masochastic bondage session with prostitutes of several different sexes. On his next trip to the country, he was confronted with a colourful and explicit album of all his activities, in the hope that he could be blackmailed into providing classified information. Unfortunately, the attempt failed, as the target broke into a broad smile, flipped through the pages eagerly, demanded to know how long the orgy had gone on for, then asked for copies of all the photos to give to his friends as they had not believed his story...

if said "senior officers" had been guilty of certain things such as aldultery, use of professional "ladies" etc etc etc, are they not as likely to be at risk of threats of blackmail from the other people involved rather than whoever has got hold of the disks!!!!!!???
Does make you wonder about Govt security tho!
and were they knicked or lost? thats more worrying

Am I missing the point?
If the info had been disclosed to the relevant authorities as part of the clearance process, where is the blackmail threat from / to?
I understood that sharing details reduced the opening for blackmail.
Maybe I am just being simple ....

I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could
In UK it was sufficient that you talked to the confessors. Mad. Indeed if you also talked to your flt cdr then you were likely to get an immediate admin discharge. We pilliored the spook plod that told us that one.

Debt, prostitutes, criminal records, drug use? Sounds like a standard navy run ashore.................
