Dear Tristian:
Oilfield service companies like Schlumberger, Halliburton, Weatherford, and Baker Hughes all have downhole logging tools that use radioactive sources, and some use radioactive tracers to track where the fluids are flowing from one well to the next. These companies could use someone familiar with HazMat and somebody with military experience who can guard these sources from theft. These companies have foreign operations all over the world. So it sounds like a good match for your skills. Take a look at their websites for such job openings.

Thanks for your service! I am familiar with a couple of contracts in your area of expertise but both are based in CONUS with short notice travel requirements OCONUS.

Good luck!

You need to get employed by a contractor firm here in US which then deploys SpecOps people to ASEAN or other theaters. Firms that do this regularly are Blackwatch, BoozAllenHamilton, SRE, SAIC, Northrup, and several smaller firms that fly-by-night since they are CIA or NSA owned/operated. The job fairs that attract these people usually run Feb to May.

Looking at your picture, it doesn't occur to me that your the bouncer muscular type that these companies look for for such assignment as you described (5' 9", 190 pounds, all muscle, no fat, automatic weapon / demolition specialist). If this is the case, your only option to get on an assignment like you describe is to specialize in another career area, which is Information Technology related such as Cyber-security or radar scientist.

WMD personnel are no longer are in demand, at least this year, because the United Nations no longer enforces WMD treaty with Iraq, Iran, or North Korea. This situation may change.
