Talk:Special Collection Service

"Black bag" missions
As a former employee of the Special Collection Service (SCS) for over 15 years, and travelling to all corners of the globe to perform intelligence gathering on behalf of the United States goverment; there were never any "black bag" missions tasked upon the SCS. This is a myth that may have grown out of the SCS's close working association with the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). While employees of the SCS may have supported such operations usually conducted by the CIA, the SCS had no requirement under its charter to conduct such operations on its own.

 * Black-bag cryptanalysis is a subset of the class "black bag" jobs. Sure, blame it all on the CIA ... *grin*  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.111.60.71 (talk) 02:05, 24 January 2009 (UTC)

I don't believe Maroonarcher. By coming here, and only complaining about that one specific item, it's an implicit endorsement of the rest of what is written. That seems a big mistake to make for someone who worked in intelligence, particularly for a group that is officially unrecognized, which must be to disguise what their actual actions are.

HQs Location of SCS
Neatly tucked away in the Maryland countryside and 'openly' disguised as an "Agricultural Research Facility" sits the main headquarters building of the Special Collection Service. These coordinates (39°02'44"N/76°51'50"W) will place you right in the middle of this super secret facility. One can see right through the "Agricultural Research" facade by noting the well placed microwave, satellite and HF log periodic antennae dotting the property at that location.

 * Yep, I drive right by it everyday. I just added it, but feel free to be bold and add such info yourself. Cheers! -- Bossi  ( talk • gallery • contrib ) 17:10, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
