[Ansteorra] SF86: aliases

[John Atkinson]

Caveat:

I didn't give the investigator much to work with.  Recent Periodic
Review for a TS/SCI which is still in progress.  By recent, I mean
"last month".  Since many of my recent references were in Iraq, and my
former unit cased its colors and the kaserne closed, he started asking
about hobbies or other groups of people that I associate with on a
regular basis.  Enter the SCA.

So he asks for some references in the SCA.  My first words are, "Well,
I've been going to beginning fighter practice with Sir G. . . you need
legal names, don't you?"  Frantic phone calls and emails produced
legal names and addresses for a couple folks to list.

I only had to provide my Society name because if someone calls people
who know me through the Society asking for "John Atkinson" they may or
may not get anything useful.
