It's not locals. That's too dangerous most of the time.
Can't risk BK tech falling into enemy hands
That’s not totally accurate. Much of the work in Afghanistan was done by local nationals. We had them cooking in our DFAC. But often the fast food joints were staffed from other countries. Seemed like mostly Eastern European workers.
And we had the same in Iraq until there were suicide bombers. Then they switched to third country nationals.
It was locals in Korea and Germany, locals in the states too obviously. I’m not sure what they do in more dangerous areas.
