Military personnel are vetted through a security process more strict than some airport employees. Some possess high levels of security clearances.
Yet, military personnel, often on official business, are subject to long lines, and a security process that does not distinguishes between an average traveler, and a member of the military, who has undergone a national security agency background check.
Fast food restaurant workers, pass through airport security with less scrutiny than our members in uniform.
This petition asks that active duty military members be afforded the same privilege as flight attendants and fast food workers, when going through airport security, and that an expedited screening process be established at all major airports.
