"We're looking for a specific type of personality," Pacheco said. "A female who likes to go outside, likes to shoot guns, likes to drive 4x4s, likes to work in the dark and likes to do shift work."

The requirements are the same, he said, as they are for male applicants. Prospective recruits should be between 18 and 37 years old, U.S. citizens, able to pass background, polygraph and drug screenings and be in good physical health. Applicants over the age limit must have military backgrounds.'
