It will all blow over, and likely before you arrive, but there will be remembrance of the issues around still.

While the BDE (at Ft Meade) may be "full of drama" the Cryptologic Support Group at SOCOM (at MacDill) is far enough from the flagpole to insulate you from that fun. That said, being away from the flag also means that you will have to be self reliant on taking care of your self professionally and personally. The CSG may be part of the 741st, but day to day activity is driven by SOCOM requirements. <br /><br />In my tenure as the BN CSM, I saw strong teams and some not so. The CSG team is only as strong as its weakest link. You'll be the face of the BN/Bde and NSA down at SOCOM. You will absolutely affect things downrange in a way only silent professional will ever know. Enjoy your time not only at SOCOM, but also in the MacDill area.

SOCOM is an interesting place to work but I'm not at all familiar with where you will actually be. Good luck!
