Technically, yes. But there is also a need-to-know requirement. It beggars the imagination to think that someone so young and so far from the channels of activity would have such specific clearances. Just because you are cleared to a level does not mean you can simply open a drawer and browse. You also have to be approved for need to know. What Kash is saying is correct (and bugger the spellcheck error---there is no "comm" if the message is in code...and you don't know the code).
I’m reading more about the product and it was a CIA product. Now that I’ve read/learned more this was an ODNI product and doubtful that E3 had access. This guy is a pasty. Someone gave it to him.
Yeah, but still restricted somehow. I had a secret clearance at a rank lower then his which was just for working on what was actually old and low tech equipment and accessing it's manuals. But it didn't mean I could then go to some other work center and check out their equipment and manuals .

I think you meant "patsy" (our pal, Spellcheck), but with his age, he was probably also pasty.
