What is a Navy Spook?       

• The dictionary defines a "spook" (n) as a ghost, or a spirit, or an apparition.  As a verb, it means "to haunt".
• Throughout the years, the U.S. Navy's "Spooks" have proven all of these definitions correct.
• He was told for years about the importance of preserving the secrecy of his work and the classified materials he handled daily.
• As one philosopher said, "Fellows who have no tongues are often all eyes and ears".
• He was the undoer of those that hoped to pass their secret plans in tongues or ciphers.
• When the situation required it, he could make a falsehood appear like truth, or the truth itself appear as a falsehood.
• While doing his job, his target did not see him, nor hear him, but he was there, like a spirit or an apparition.
• The U.S. Navy Spook knew all too well that hell could simply be the truth deciphered too late, so he kept his skills well honed.
• He searched the winds, the waves, the lands, and the deep for secret and enigmatic characters.
• The work he did so willingly was vitally important to the country.
• He and his fellow "Spooks" fully deserve the gratitude of a grateful nation for all their years of silence and patriotism.
• Some gave their ALL, and all gave some to keep this country free.
• In GOD we trust - (all others we monitor)
