I find it odd and interesting that there is a specific injunction against joining the Peace Corps if you've ever worked for the CIA (or any intelligence agency, for that matter). Likewise there is a temporary injunction the other way round...you can't be employed by an intelligence agency for a period of time (determined separately by each agency). I wonder why this might be the case; closest I can come is that because the Peace Corps is often an overseas posting, members have the potential to make non-secure contacts during their tenure with the Peace Corps which would then take advantage of their intelligence clearances and whatnot? Dunno. Strange.
