Ask A Spook! Cryptologic Questions

How much can a spook tell their wife about what they do? Can I just say, "I work with computers (CTN)" or can I tell her more?

That's about it really. You can't discuss anything about what you're working on, what the missions are, what capabilities your shop does or doesn't have, who works on what, security strengths or weaknesses, mission successes or failure, etc, etc, etc.

She doesn't need to know what you do outside the of job sheet description. Anything more than that and you risk going to jail for a long, long time.

My wife knows I go chase bad guys at work. That's about it haha She doesn't need, nor want to, know more than that.

Gotcha. That's what I figured.

Anyone got any tips for the DLAB? More specifically the stress syllables and the visual section? Those two are throwing me for a pretty nasty loop
