When they are performing a Secret Clearance investigation on you for the nuclear officer program, do they contact all my previous employers or do they stick with just a credit check, and national and local criminal records search?

Anything and everything in last 7 years is fair game.

Yea I heard of them contacting little league coaches and teachers for the top secret clearance but never for ordinary secret.... I think I seen a posting saying they did not even contact his references forordinary secret but I was just hoping someone with more insight knew what they actually check.

I hope you are not asking this question because you are thinking about being less then 100% honest on your security questionnaire.

Correct. This was recently for a higher clearance level.

The point, young man, is that NOTHING will remain uncovered. Give it all up on the front end and you won't have to worry about your "back end".  8)

If you have a concern about getting a clean security clearance, it is better to fess up before you sign the contract.  Should they find something amiss in you past, you will be made an E-3 and could end up in First Division.  Not a place you would like to be.
