Flight,
For your information!!
Almost 150 years ago, President Lincoln found it necessary to hire a private investigator, Alan Pinkerton, for protection. That was the beginning of the Secret Service.
Since that time, federal police authority has grown to a large number of multi-letter agencies - FBI, CIA, NSA, INS, IRS, DEA, ATF, etc.
Now comes the Federal Air Transportation Airport Security Service. Can't you see them now? These highly trained me! n and women in their black outfits with initials in large white letters across their backs?
F. A. T. A. S. S. - - - - - - - I feel safer already.
