The N.S.A.
----------
Those damn fedz. How many times have you heard or read that? A lot
I bet. But do you HONESTLY ever think about that statement? For example,
if you say it what part of "fedz" do you hate? Hmm. Makes you sorta think
about what branches you know about...lesse...CIA, FBI, and the Secret
Service. Right? How 'bout the NSA?
"NSA? WHats that?" Ahh. Glad you asked. NSA is a part of our
government that we should all know about. In a recent movie, _Sneakers_,
a small side of the NSA came out and was exposed to a lot of people. Most
probably said "I didn't know they existed." Other said "Yeah, I knew about
them but didn't know what they did." Bet a lot people still don't know that
much about them. When I went into the movie I didn't know about them really.
Well, good ole me went and decided I want to know a little more about them.
Bad move. I found the one part of the government that scares me more than
any other branch.
I went out and read the book _The Puzzle Palace_ written by James
Bamford. On the cover it says "Inside the national security agency, America's
most secret intelligence organization". Yep. Most secret. That just begins
it. Anyway, the following information was taken straight from the book and
I think you should read it all. Pretty interesting stuff in there actually.
Do you know how big the NSA is?
July 1954- Project K was begun. $19,944,451 dollars. It called for a 3 story
Glass and reinforced concrete structure in the shape of an 'A'.
1.4 million-square-foot main building. 60,000 square foot
basement.
Fall 1957- Project K completed. But it had cost $35,000,000 instead of $19
million.
June 1963- New Headquarters building started. Estimated cost $12 million.
512,000 sqaure feet.
After it was done it made it the size of the CIA building, and the capitol
of the US put together. It housed 7,560,000 linear feet of telephone wire,
70,000 square feet of permanantly sealed windows, a cooling tower capable of
holding 11 million gallons of water a day and the nation's longest
unobstructed corridor- 980 feet.
For the record. CIA Building - 1,228,000 sq.ft.
Capitol Bldg.- 718,740 sq.ft.
Total - 1,946,740 sq.ft.
NSA Building - 1,912,000 sq.ft.
-This NSA complex is surrounded by a ten-foot Cyclone fence crowned with
multiple rows of barbed wire. Along the fence are warnings telling you
not to take pictures or making sketches of the building. Inside this fence
is another, consisting of five thin strands of high-voltage electrified
wire attached to wooden posts. After that is ANOTHER Cyclone fence
reinforcing the others. This last fence is occasionally patrolled by armed
guards with dogs.
-Within this building are many different security measure that will make
you wonder what they are hiding. Anyway, there is a kitchen with people
slaving over stoves 24 hours a day.
-There is a medical complex with emergency unit, x-ray machine, operating
rooms etc.
1966 - The 'S' Building was completed. This $5.7 million dollar building is
261,516 sq.ft. and was designed as the home for the Agency's Communications
Security Organization (COMSEC).
Early 70's - There were 5 buildings housing about 35 hundred men and women.
Also added was a mess hall that can seat a thousand people, an $844,000
recreation building, and a $2,000,000 Troop Support building to house the
administration activities of the three service cryptologic agencies.
1972 - A $2.6 million Sensitive Materials Center was started to contain the
millions of miles of intercept tapes produced yearly. The 100,000 sq.ft.
facility holds millions of tapes.
1973 - The $3.5 million Logistics Building was begun. Once the 125,400 sq.ft.
building was completed the NSA spent $53,000 moving 700 vanloads of paper
and office equipment. Half a million cubic feet of the building is used to
store the paper on which intercepts are printed.
What to do with all that paper after it has been read, analysed, and burned.
In a 1980 report by the Government Accounting Office, the NSA classifies
somewhere between 50 and 100 million documents a year.
Late 1972 - Plans for a $1.2 million "classified waste destructor" to
get rid of all the excess paper
That enough for you? I think not.
Under way or now finished.
- $6.5 million Facility Control Center
- $2.5 million Logistics Support Center
- $2.5 million addition to the Troop Support Facility
- $2 million dollars are scheduled for road improvements
- $3.5 million is scheduled for other stuff such as underground
communications to a beefed up security check point.
- $92 million - 1,000,000 sq.ft. addition to the Headquarters-Operations
building complex.
Yep. That is 92 million. Add all that up and consider the years it was
spent in. You have a part of the goverment that dwarves the FBI, the CIA,
and the Secret Service, yet most people don't know shit about it. You wonder
where all that tax money REALLY goes? Do you know what the NSA really does?
In one sentence they basically try to keep the US government's communications
secure while trying to break other countries communications codes.
That is all they do. And they need all that equipment and all those people
and all that money. You want to know more about what they do? Read the
book _Puzzle Palace_ by James Bamford. Damn interesting and damn scary.
Guess that is all. Just want to make people aware of the shadow you never
knew you had.
