anybody know anything about "High Risk" tucking jobs?

http://www.xeservices.com/WhatWeDo/Logistics.aspx <<--- Formerly known as Blackwater. I have no idea if they run their own trucks but they would know more than just about anyone when it comes to "High Risk" logistics, I would think.

 

here you go, i'll get you ready for what to expect.......

 

KBR and Halliburton are the two biggest overseas contractors. There's more and I'm sure Google can help ya out. GL.

 

gas haulers and LAW's dont mix

 

Yea I've looked into this allot, in fact when I got my CDL at 18 the school told me thats what I should do (iraq) because I was young and they couldnt find me a job...


I also know a few drivers that have been or are currently over there. My freinds dad has been doing it for 6 years....


here's some good info for ya:

this is a KBR convoy that was ambushed, the truck drivers over there try to run with the military for protection but the Military does NOT have to protect them, they will not put there mission in jepordy for the truck drivers...as you can see in this video the army guys just keep going...

theres allot more like these just go to YouTube and type in KBR Drivers. These guys put there lives at risk everyday, and are not allowed to carry weapons. They are not allow to have military radios in there trucks so they have NO way to communicate or ask for help. They are paid very well for what they do and are treated VERY good by the military.

Think long and hard about it......

Heard they have hundreds of Filipinos, East Indians, and other allied nations's drivers pretty much taking all the former driving jobs at a fraction of the cost.

Don't even think an American CDL is required, as long as you can drive, and handle the rig under pressure.

Just second hand and what I've gathered from former drivers in the Middle East.

 

theres a long list of qualifications...

Perhaps look into CRST !!

 

Western out of CO. has an armored rig division. Check them out. Personally I think downtown LA is bad enough for me.
