agencies and law enforcement agencies to gather analytical data for those
entities responsible for bringing drug empires to justice. I also developed and
implemented the technical support infrastructure that maintained the systems
at NDIC. I am proud of the work I did for my country in trying to halt the
drug nightmare consuming our country.
I am Samuel J. Raines, Sr. Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE), Certified
Government Financial Manager (CGFM), and I am a retired auditor. I am a
graduate of the Department of Defense Graduate Program with a Master of
Public Administration in Public Financial Management from American
University, Washington, D.C. I received my basic auditing training with the
Naval Audit Service through the Navy’s Centralized Financial Management
Internal Program. Upon successful completion, I was permanently assigned to
the Naval Audit Service. I served as a resident auditor assigned to the Special
Audits Division, and as an Acquisition Auditor assigned to Program Executive
Office (PEO) for Air Anti-Submarine Weapon, Assault & Special Mission
Programs. I held a Top Secret, Compartmented security clearance. Also,
during my Federal Government career, I served as a senior auditor with the
U.S. Postal Service Office of Inspector General. I retired from the Federal
Government after 27 years of service.
I am Leslie Ravenell the NARFE Virginia Federation President, and I worked
as a child development specialist for the United States Air Force. I started my
career at Hahn Air Base, Germany, in 1976, where I was the Director of a
child development program for 120 children, including full-time and part-time
child care for children ages 6 months to 5 years and a part day pre-school
program for 3- to 5-year-olds. Military child care was just beginning to
expand as a result of the change in DoD policy in 1974, which allowed
military women to return to active duty following the birth of their baby.
Military child care programs then began to expand further and so my
responsibilities expanded to include care for children 6 weeks old to 6 months,
oversight of Family Child Care (FCC) to include licensing of FCC providers,
Before and After School Program, all Youth Center Programs up to age 18,
including youth sports and youth recreation, and finally, oversight of base
community centers.

I also had assignments at 3 Air Force Headquarters, where I was responsible
for oversight of eight child development programs in England and at Ramstein
