[Criminal Number 18F]

One thing I didn't mention, unlike university instructors, most DLI instructors are native speakers of the target language. That is a very important thing. During the 80s there were so many Russian classes that some of the Russian instructors were experienced military linguists.

Parents with service age, bright kids -- this is a good program. All four services send people here, albeit for different languages and different purposes. A majority of the graduates will work in some aspect of intelligence collection or analysis -- they might wind up with stories they can't tell the grandkids.

Beat me to it. I was gonna say that. Sure I have loads of stories, not a one am I gonna remember for my grandkids under penalty of Fort Leavenworth.
