ATAB Lifetime Distinguished Membership Award

General Charles Trumbetta , Ph.D, CMAS, MSM

Dr. Orfeo “Chuck” Trombetta Jr.


Many of us in the security and special operations industry have known and respected Chuck for many years. He is a retired US Army Officer (Infantry, Special Forces, Military Intelligence, Civil Affairs, and Psychological Operations trained), and a retired Federal Employee (US Departments of Justice and Labor). He has also served as a Consultant to a large number of government agencies and currently is a co-owner of his own security and operations firm, known as the American Security and Operations Group, International (ASOG). Chuck’s technical security accomplishments have been known to many of the senior staff of the Anti Terrorism Accreditation Board for decades. And, as usual, the success of our organization is epitomized by dedicated professionals like Chuck.

Chuck voluntarily joined the US Army shortly after completing his Associate of Arts degree in 1967. After completing his obligatory training he was selected for Infantry Officers Candidate School where he was commissioned a 2LT in the Military Intelligence Branch of the Army. After a succession of intelligence, psychological operations, Special Forces, and foreign language training he was deployed to Okinawa. In the following 4 years he cut his teeth in Army intelligence, security, and special operations assignments throughout Southeast Asia and the Pacific (Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, Thailand, Korea, Japan, Philippines), and other areas that remain classified. His initial training prepared him for operations and security planning that led to advanced security training in the Special Operations Forces with multiple follow-on assignments with the 5th Special Forces Group (Airborne), Vietnam, the Military Equipment Delivery Team, Cambodia (MEDTEC), and the Military Assistance Command Vietnam Studies and Observations Group (MACVSOG). When he returned to the United States in 1972, he was by-name selected to become the Director of Security for the US Army Topographic Center, the Army’s element of the newly formed Defense Mapping Agency. This is where he began his long and distinguished career as a Special Security Officer designing and building myriad highly technical and secure facilities for the US Government to protect against forced entry, electronic interception, and antiterrorism.

In 1975, Chuck was recruited from the US Army by the Department of Justice (DOJ). Although he remained an active Reserve Officer, he turned his full energies into building a new Directorate of Security within that Department. After initially assisting with the establishment of the office, Chuck became the Chief, of the Special Security Division with full responsibility for the care, custody, and control of all Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI) stored, used, and processed by the DOJ. Almost immediately he was named as the Security Officer to the Attorney General’s Office where he advised the succession of Attorneys General of the United States and their respected senior staffs from 1976-1987. During this period of time Chuck also served as the SCI Accreditation Authority for the DOJ and was specifically nominated and appointed to this position by the Director of Security, Central Intelligence Agency.

As the Special Security Officer of the Department of Justice during the period 1976-1987, he designed, oversaw the construction and accreditation of the following most sensitive facilities and programs:



  • The DOJ Special Security Center which included the first multi-level SCI approved storage vault and formal SCI approved conference room in the DOJ.

  • The first SCI storage facility located in the offices of the Attorney General, as well as a number of other SCI storage facilities located throughout the Main DOJ Building and the other DOJ Agencies.

  • The first multi-level SCI Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) and the Administrative Offices of the Court, which were an integral part of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. This effort required that he be fully briefed by the Departments of State and Defense, the CIA, NSA, and other specific Program Managers to ensure that he was specifically aware of all known technical security threats that existed up to that time in order for him to design and construct a facility that could defeat such threats. The final Court design established a new level of security awareness throughout the Intelligence Community.

  • The first multi-level fully operational Justice Command Center which integrated all of the DOJ law enforcement agencies into a single facility that could be commanded by the Attorney General of the United States. This facility was also fully accredited for an extremely large number of SCI levels of special access and multiple stand-alone Special Access Programs utilizing many of the new techniques incorporated in the FISA Court facility.

  • Subsequently, he designed and oversaw the construction and SCI accreditation of the initial 10 core city Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force (OCDETF) Offices across the United States.

In his position as the Special Security Officer of the DOJ, he worked closely with most of the senior DOJ appointees, the White House, Departments of State and Defense, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Drug Enforcement Agency, US Marshals Service, Immigration and Naturalization Service, the Central Intelligence Agency and with the President’s Organized Crime Commission; where he was the first appointed Security Officer to the Commission. Chuck also worked closely with the U.S. Supreme Court in drafting the Security Procedures to the Classified Information Procedures Act and with the U.S. Federal Courts in redesigning the physical security requirements for all of US Courts, nationwide. He also served as the first Security Officer to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court and was the first Security Officer/EYES ONLY Officer to the Attorneys General of the United States (1976-1986) and Security Officer to the President’s Organized Crime Commission. During this time and due to his myriad assignments and security responsibilities he was commissioned as a Special Deputy U.S. Marshal.

When he left the DOJ in 1987, he immediately began working as a consultant to the FBI and then was employed with the General Research Corporation in McLean, Virginia where he continued to support the Federal government’s various security programs.

Shortly thereafter, he was recalled to the Federal government by the President George H.W. Bush Administration to work in the Department of Labor as Executive Assistant to the Assistant Secretary of Labor for the Veterans Employment and Training Staff. During this assignment, he was subsequently recalled to Active Duty with the US Army for service in the Gulf War. Chuck initially served as a Battle Planning Officer with the Third US Army, then commanded the Coalition Warfare Team, 352 Civil Affairs Command where he was attached to the 5th Special Forces Group (Airborne) during the Invasion and Liberation of Kuwait. After Kuwait was liberated, Chuck served as the Liaison Officer to the Kuwaiti Commanding General, General Jaber al Sabah until redeployment to the United States. After his arrival home, he was extended on duty to assist in the Desert Storm Victory Day Parade.

In 1991, Chuck left the federal Government with the change in Administrations and became a security and operations consultant. During the period 1991 through 1998 he served in a variety of consultative positions working with numerous federal agencies and civilian corporations. Throughout this period of time, he was involved in security and operations work, engineering and design of new vehicles for the US Military Services, and other technical security efforts supporting the various members of the Intelligence Community.

In 1999, he joined the Wexford Group International as Assistant Vice-President for Asset Protection and Security Operations. In this position he and members of this staff conducted a number of operational assessments aimed at preventing the unauthorized access to sensitive and classified information for a number of specialized organizations located in the Washington, DC area. He remained with this firm until they reorganized and were eventually bought out by CACI.

In 2004, Chuck and two members of the Wexford Group started their own security firm and ran that firm until it was also reorganized into his current firm where he serves as the CEO and Founder of American Security and Operations Group, International. During this period of time, Chuck and the members of his security firm branched out and began assisting the nuclear community with high-tech security solutions to their physical security requirements.

In 2009, Chuck and another member of his former organization formed the American Security and Operations Group, International (ASOG). ASOG is the successor organization of an effort that was started 9 years earlier.  This organization has been fine tuned to ensure that it continues to provide the very best consultative and technical security and asset protection services to its clients. ASOG specializes in the design of integrated electronic security systems, processes, and procedures to ensure the maximum degree of protection for its clients.

Most recently, in response to a myriad of terrorist issues worldwide, ASOG in keeping with its continuous adherence to only representing the most advanced products, has recently introduced a new variation of an existing but extraordinarily secure and fully transportable modular building system for the immediate use, protection, and enhanced survivability of the US Federal Diplomatic Corps, the Military Services, and the US Intelligence Community in extremely hostile and/or combat locations. This US based and developed line of Extreme Security Modular Building Systems has been modified by ASOG for a number of national and international high-security projects/applications. These particular modifications concern the capability to produce and deliver Deployable Hardened Emergency Safe Havens (DHESH). This newly released product provides extreme physical security, ballistic, and blast protection that provides dramatically enhanced survivability above any other modular and transportable product available. Additionally, with relatively little modification, it also lends itself to modification/enhancement resulting in accreditation as a SCIF that is fully operational the moment it is put into place within the operational spectrum of any hostile location, including an active combat zone. This product is available to any government or private corporation that requires the absolute maximum security, protection, and survivability of personnel, information, facilities, and equipment specifically for use in extremely/potentially hostile areas of operation, including combat zones of operation. Of especial importance is the fact that this product offers the user agency an opportunity to deploy the product in an undetermined number of various configurations that may be discreetly introduced throughout the operational spectrum without unduly compromising the insertion of these extreme security structures. The product has been tested by the Departments of State and DOD, is currently being used by the US Nuclear Community, and the federal law enforcement community.

Over the years, Chuck has successfully functioned as an investigator, special agent, security professional, special operations officer, terrorism expert, teacher, and mentor, and to all those that know him, has always been a trusted friend and always a Soldier.

He holds an AA Degree in Liberal Arts, a BS Degree in the Administration of Justice, a MS Degree in National Security Strategy, and a PhD. in Strategic Studies. His military and Federal public service careers span over 44 years of distinguished service recognized by numerous civilian honors, most notably, the Attorney General of the United States’ Special Commendation for Outstanding Service, he was named a Quintillion Peer (qp) by the former Quintillion Academy, a distinction bestowed on the living 100 US citizens who have made a lasting contribution to the National Security of the United States and he has received numerous US military awards and decorations for outstanding service, heroism, and valor, as well as many decorations from the countries of Vietnam; Laos; Cambodia; Thailand; Saudi Arabia; Kuwait; and Germany. 

Chuck retired from the US Army/Army Reserve in June 1996 with over 29-years of service. His dedicated service includes more than four years of combat duty in Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, and Kuwait. Shortly after his retirement, he was appointed by the Chief, Army Reserve to a new program known as the Army Reserve Ambassador Program. He was initially appointed as Army Reserve Ambassador to the State of Maryland, where he served four consecutive 3-year tours of duty after having been reappointed by 3 successive Chiefs of the Army Reserve. He continues to serve in his 13th year as an Ambassador Emeritus to the Chief Army Reserve. This honorary position has been designated by the Secretary of the Army as a Major General-equivalent or VIP-5 billet.

In this capacity, he remains very active in the following organizations: Commander, DC Chapter, Military Order of Foreign Wars of the United States (MOFW); Senior Vice Commander, VA Chapter, Military Order of World Wars (MOWW); Commander, DC Garrison, Army Navy Union (ANU); Special Forces Association (SFA); Life Member-US Marine Corps League (USMCL); Post Commander, Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW); Association of the United States Army (AUSA); American Society of Industrial Security (ASIS); The Retired Officers Association (TROA/MOAA); National Defense Industrial Association (NDIA); Life Member-Reserve Officers Association (ROA); Legion of Honor, Chapel of the Four Chaplains; and Life Member - Combat Infantryman Association (CIA), and the Special Forces Association.
