if you need the person's identity, always ask for the i/d in addition ot the name of the nameplate and compare it to the face and the name on the badge (and hope for a mis-match..... ;))

Awesome job, Spiff!! Keep'em coming more new information from TSA.

I knows TSA doesn't have justifications me to taking off the shoes. It's stupid shoes policies. I knows Kippie Hawley is taking own responsibilities work for TSA. It's mostly importance for his job. Its will be keep the criminal or terrorist off the planes. It need to be more protection all passengers & the crew, too. It will be more strong political from TSA. I knows he was very wrong what he done something to do. Its will be guarantees from TSA will keep commercial airplanes is safe & security, too.

I am already knows the cockpit has been already reinforcement with harder cockpit door. It will keep suspicious behaviors off the planes. They already installed with security surveillance camera onboard the aircraft. Every time if you see suspicious behaviors onboard the aircraft but, the aircraft will be automatically landed into another airports instead of final destinations cities.

I knows it TSA has already put on Air Marshals all commerical aircraft. They need to keep eyes on the passengers & the crew, too. If passengers try to be interence of the crew. Passengers will be restraining with him or her, too. The flight attendant will be notified to captains will diverted another airports to make emergency landing. The law enforcement will wait at the aircraft door. They will be removal from the aircraft. They will never flying again for rest of miserably life. I am always watched the passengers who have suspicious behaviors on the aircraft. I will try to restrained him or her. When F/A to tell him what he can go back to seat but, do not touch the flight crew at all. Never! its would be spent in the prisons for 20 years or paying the fined is more than $10,000 with TSA civil penalties. Its will be prohibited criminal off the aircraft for a long time.

"The name tag now displays the officers last name and rank. This allows passengers to more easily identify officers."

I scared the .... out of one of them today when I told him the first time he walks in on a robbery in progress in that uniform & the perp thinks he's an leo & he gets the bullet.

:rolleyes:

Ok, I don't have a comeback... nor do I feel in the mood too to write either, seeing as how I learned this morning there has been a death in the family.

So much so, I forgot to shave, thinking oh great, now I'm going to get a counseling from the Fashion Gestapo Subsection of the General Aviation Security Gestapo (well, at least to a quarter the general American public, since it's seems to you folks here the other 75% are uninformed sheeples. ;)).

Oh yes, I already knows the identifications the employment's name. I always knows of them at PHX & FLL, too. When I passed through at checkpoint. Every time that I came say hello to them. I helpful to clean the bins up from x-ray machines. When TSA is screened the passengers' bags. I am really appreciated it for efforts & contribute from TSA. They says thanks to me that I did removal the bins off the x-ray's belt.

gak!

Highly skilled ... at standing around.

Seriously. You gotta get over the shoe thing! If you are flying, then you are a passenger, you follow the same rules that passengers follow. Simple as that.

To stay on topic. The new uniforms are a pain in the a$$. Way more care involved with them than with the white ones. Some TSO's wont bother with taking care of them, and then they will look crappy again.

Then the next generation of uniforms can look like these:

Those will command the respect for the screeners that the TSA so desperately desires.

Or these, Comrade:

Name and rank. Sounds like the continued militarization of the government against the American people.

Did they start phasing these in earlier? I thought I saw them at DCA last month.

In any case, they now make the TSOs look more like rent-a-cops and not less.
