Like many Army Engineer officers, I took advantage of taking the PE Registration in Virginia. And, like many Army Engineer officers who remained on active duty, I have never professionally used my license except as a credential in dealing with contractors working for the government. If you place this requirement on me, I will let my registration lapse. It's been too many years for me even to think about certifying any engineering design as "worthy" of anything. However, I still use the credential when I deal with contractors to this day even though I am retired from the military. I think you'll lose many folks in my category if you place this requirement on the PE population in Virginia.
