Female interrogators want you to stop hitting on them, it’s getting out of hand now

Filed · 1547

Sierra Vista, AZ - From dealing with uncooperative detainees during interrogation to piecing together critical intelligence, military interrogators have experienced it all. But the experience for female interrogators is sometimes even tougher. Some have said they've had enough.

"Look, I know we're supposed to be all about human behavior, but this is getting out of hand," says SPC Holly McWhite, a 23 year-old 5'8'' 36-24-36 blonde-haired, blue-eyed, Human Intelligence (HUMINT) Collector with the 309th Military Intelligence Battalion.

McWhite expresses a common complaint of a female typically practicing the craft of a HUMINT professional: Male soldiers cannot apparently distinguish between illicitation from a female to a female "being into you", as McWhite phrases it.

During exercises on elicitation and tactical source operations, McWhite struggles to contain her irritation. "When I ask for your contact information, I just really want to exploit your phone and email for other contacts. If I task you, I am not hitting on you! I am this close to punching someone in the dick! Either that or calling Equal Opportunity Office and file a complaint against...the unit. One of the two."
