Wow, didn't know they had their own bad-a$$ security force, always assumed it was military providing security.

Where's the belt-fed HK21? Can't do SSDG program without the HK21.

I read about their MP5's doing a half million rounds from training about 12-14 years ago.

I guess a civil space agency needs belt-feds and M-16's/MP5's, but we can't have them.

What's the definition of "tyranny" again?

What catagory do the NASA security guys fit in? Are they POST trained sworn law enforcement officers?

No, they probably want to protect the few billion dollars invested in both the Space Shuttle, and the Vehicle Assembly Building.  Both government property by the way.

ETA: Awesome picture.  Always wanted to see the VAB in person.  That would be teh cool.

That's a big ass NASA emblem.


Yes, from 20 miles away that building looks huge.  It's so big, it has its own weather system - clouds form inside.  I visited it 30 years ago. (If that's the same building where they used to assemble the Atlas rockets).
