When I went on staff at the Sac Org, The Dissem Sec and ED had swapped posts some time between my starting service and going on staff a couple months later.
Years later, the ED and his wife (she was the HAS or LRH Comm at that point) got recruited into the SO. He was supposedly being groomed up to become the CO CLO WUS and she went to Gold. The PES took over the ED post and and I got stuck with the PES post despite not being able to talk to people easily. Somehow in the next few months I managed to sucker someone else to take it and I snagged the Div 2 reg post which was easier. All this aside...
So the future CO CLO WUS wound up not replacing Vicki Shantz and at some point wound up being sent out to Valley Org on a Command Mission and became the ED of Valley Org and got stuck there for several years.
Meanwhile his wife, who somehow got posted as the LRH Comm at Gold went out-2d and blew. (I don't know what happened to their young daughter who was 2 or 3 when they left Sac.)
Anyway, the ED Valley Org (who was still an SO member) eventually must have decided to get the hell out of that Org which had been failing for years, and one week stole the staff pay, went to Vegas and lost it all playing poker. He was old COSMOD staff and had been one of those who signed their contracts in blood (literally) to show his dedication, and was a bit wild. He liked to play poker and smoke cigars. I think he went to the RPF for that one, but at least he wasn't the ED Valley any more. I saw him after the RPF when I did my FEBC at ITO and shortly after that he did get posted as the CO CLO WUS.
