My strong guess is yes. He's been away from a DOD job for close to twenty years, but I know he still maintains a related credit union account. Don't get me wrong, my friend was very impressed with the service turnaround. The last time one of their passports needed renewing, my recollection was it was processed in person through US Government offices either in Ankara or Madrid.
