Since 9/11 they’re generally locked off from the public in the US. I attended some mass casualty and terrorism training and we talked with someone who ran their city water and sewer. He had a neat plan to radiate the city water system he helped them defend against.
I used to work in the oil industry, and there are old field logs from the 50s/60s where a whole crew died and the well is manned 2 days later. In the early 2000s we’d spend days on a single death or injury. Once the company paid the overtime because a guy’s wife was in labor and the contractor didn’t want to give him time off. It was addressed as a safety issue, there was no way he could concentrate safely… no issues to pay it. Sad to see the munitions industry caught in the 50s.
Believe it or not I spent time considering what to call the prize. In the end I think they’d assume US = better.
I also thought about describing the medal depicting an eagle driving a 4-wheeler off a ramp. But I felt that was both too over-the-top and too creepy if it came true.
