Are you married to a US citizen, and have they been a citizen 3 years or longer, and have you been married to that citizen more than 3 years? If you answered yes to all three then should be eligible.

Also need to be resident in same field office district at least 90 days.

Other factors are: min 18 months of 3 years in the USA if married to a citizen, or 30 months of 5 years in the USA if not.

If not married to a US citizen, then 5 years of US residency is required.

As far as I know, if you have served for the US Military, then you can apply on an expedited way. Have not heard this about the Department of Defense but you might want to check this with an immigration attorney.

Judging by the information on this USCIS page - no. They can expedited citizenship (if they choose) to members of the armed forces and their families. You do not fit that criteria by being a Civilian DOD contractor.

I encourage you to read the page I linked below.

USCIS recognizes the important sacrifices made by non-U.S. citizen members of the U.S. armed forces and their families. USCIS is committed to processing their naturalization applications in a timely and efficient manner while providing exemplary customer service, maintaining the integrity of the immigration system, and maintaining the security of the process.

Members of the U.S. armed forces and their dependents (spouses and children) may be eligible for citizenship, to include expedited and overseas processing, under special provisions of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.eb1d4c2a3e5b9ac89243c6a7543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=d9e03e4d77d73210VgnVCM100000082ca60aRCRD&vgnextchannel=d9e03e4d77d73210VgnVCM100000082ca60aRCRD
