CAMP H.M. SMITH, Hawaii - The dice donning "D.I.C.E. Man" Raymond M. Semko speaks to U.S. Marine Corps Forces, Pacific, personnel Oct. 15 at the Pollock Theater. The brief fulfilled several annual training requirements for Department of Defense employees and service members as Semko went over national security measures by explaining how any one individual can compromise the country's operational integrity. The accurately tailored, and seemingly unsuspecting Semko began the brief by pointing out his untraditional appearance, slowly explaining throughout the course of instruction why and how counter-intelligence operatives provide an inconspicuous appearance in order to turn relatively common information into intelligence. Semko has been conducting security broiefings since 1989 after a lifelong career of military and counter intelligence experience. As Camp Smith teeters on a sesitive nature, with even uniformed military requiring security clearance, the briefing coraligned with the base's operational security, Semko adding, "I want to change the attitude toward security - stop assuming everyone with a badge is stable and secure. It's usually the one's we trust that end up hurting America. That's what drives me." (Official U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl. Kevin Beebe)(Released) - CAMP H.M.
