Sample Book Insights:
#1 I was in Chicago with my girlfriend Kate, and I was nervous about meeting her friends. I was studying Pashtu full-time, and had just passed my competency exam. Something inside me released a burst of adrenaline.
#2 I was scheduled to receive the weapons and other types of training required before going to a forward base. I was in Chicago, not DC, so I couldn’t march into headquarters and offer my assistance. I knew several young CIA officers assigned there and had trained with them at the Farm.
#3 I was a freshman at the University of Indiana starting to pursue a course of study to become an optometrist. 9/11 changed my life, and I decided to change my major to political science, study Japanese and Chinese, and focus on learning about the world around me.
#4 I was with the woman I loved, but I felt an impulse to grab a beer out of the mini fridge and down it. I reminded myself that I was with the woman I loved and told myself that I had to focus on making her happy for the next two days.
