A 100 or so out there floating around mostly covering OCONUS flights.... and that's it.

I know two FAM's who have retired in the last year or so. Both moved from another agency after 9/11 during the big hiring push. I don't think either stayed any longer than needed to hit minimum retirement time. I certainly don't think using FAM's to interdict drones is a good use of available resources.
