Like one response above, I stopped counting at >50 though a lot were courtesy of Uncle Sam and some larger pharma companies before Uncle Sam. None were military and the only 3 letter agency was NCI/NIH
 
I have been in 42 states but not often in other countries. British Columbia and the Yukon territory while on the way to or back from Alaska. Once a couple miles into Nogales Mexico to get my men out of jail after a long night of visiting bars and bar girls.

Ireland three times ('00,'01,'03). Drove all over the Republic in a various Ford Mondeo's, also took the train from Waterford to Dublin and back. Went by ferry to the Aran Islands. Spent the most time in County Mayo, where most of my relatives are.

England twice in '00 changing planes on the first Ireland trip. Heathrow is a big airport.
 
Don't like lists-
Don't want to check them twice-
Don't want to see who's naughty and nice.
I'm usually on the naughty list.
One time I walked into passenger terminal Cafeteria at Clark AB, PI.
I see a little woman, bout 4 feet fall, dark skinned, long dress to the floor, screaming at the top of her lungs at the hired help.
I watch for a while and asked another GI who is that little fireball?
He answered her name, which I forget, but she is the Queen of the Negritos.
The Negritos lived on the large Clark Reservation and I met some while going through Jungle Survival School there.
In WWII, the Negritos fought the Japanese and were rewarded by Doug MacArthur with some base privileges.
So she apparently had a disagreement with the Cafeteria staff who were all backed up away from the counter.
Finally a supervisor came in , talked to her and got her calmed down.
When she orders a cheeseburger, you should pay close attention to her order.

Back in my puppy dog days-
Was stationed in Harlingen, TX.
We got briefings, advice, information about Mexico.
And a 24-7 phone number of a CID agent in Brownsville.
After a couple of trips to Mexico, one of the guys said,
