[quote:TN_Dan:MV80NzQxNjI5Xzg2NDExOTk4XzRBNjM0Q0M=] """I think what we are learning is that being a Counterintelligence Agent is kind of boring and they don't know much better than you and I about much of anything except what is immediately right in front of them at any given time. The complexities and stuff outside of their focus, well...there's really not much here. It was a good read and the takeaway is worth the time, but the lesson is lower your expectations when it comes to who knows what, NOT "Wow, look at all this intel!""" I've been waiting for this very response. The nail has been hit on the head. There is a mystique surrounding the title of the job thanks to hollywood sensationalizing what we do. We're just detectives that get right in the middle of the shit on occasion. Thanks for posting this. [/quote]

My area of operation was Northern Africa and the Middle East from the first Clinton term to the end of the first Obama term.
I also assisted with and ran point on numerous Army Criminal Investigations Division cases.
Ask me anything.
So long as I know what you're talking about and it doesn't violate the terms of my NDA and clearance conditions, you'll get a truthful answer.
