Part 1 is not a CIA tell-all or a rehashing of what happened, when and where. Jim's too much of a pro for that. He worked for 25 years at the Central Intelligence Agency’s National Clandestine Service. At the time of his retirement he was a member of the CIA’s Senior Intelligence Service. Jim describes the rigorous training he was provided, the skills of observation and insight he developed, and the challenges a field officer must navigate to survive. He shows how all of these would play such an important role in the next of chapter of his life, helping research, educate and explain Unidentified Anomalous Phenomenon - what we used to call UFO’s. And in doing so, he provides an answer to that most mysterious of all questions - are we humans really alone?
