All of the armed forces have civilian employees, for which there are no
physical restrictions on hiring. They fall into the "Government Employee
category" my suggestion would to play it safe, make your work 508
compliant.

My suggestion is you consult with Doug Wakefield, and or the Department of
Justice. This is a legal question and if I were you I would get a
definitive legal answer.

Sincerely,

Mike Burks

That has been considered and the section of the intranet that is being
considered for 508 compliance is restricted to military personnel only. No
civilian employees will have access to this area.

I have no problems with making everything 508 compliant, however I want to
be able to let the client know all of the options before giving my
suggestions.

Thank you for the suggestion and information.

Michael
