Ive had mine so long it is a bout to expire
I was FSO for the offshore company I used to work for so I had to attend monthly meetings with the USCG. The TWIC thing has been going on since 2001. Lockheed and TSA kept dragging their feet and changing things to the point where after a while it all just seemed to be one big joke. In fact the program still isnt even close to being fully implemented. The "official" handheld readers that I saw a prototype of in 2004 still haven't come online yet. Right now it is just another government failure that eats up tax dollars and paychecks.
