Very interesting, thankq. The Wiki link showed the following:
"Senior level employees of several agencies are exempt from the SES but have their own senior executive positions; these include the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Central Intelligence Agency, Defense Intelligence Agency, National Security Agency, Transportation Security Administration, Federal Aviation Administration, Government Accountability Office, Members of the Foreign Service, and government corporations."
For emphasis:
Federal Bureau of Investigation
Central Intelligence Agency
Defense Intelligence Agency
National Security Agency
Members of the Foreign Service
IF SES is the keystone, these exemptions are highly relevant, yes? Do not share the same keystone seal and flag?
