Preparation and background
Intimations of a severe problem
My own personal disillusionment
I get an overseas assignment
My first operational tour
Administration and support
Effluvia and the cover dilemma
The good old days and the bad new days
Pettiness, jealousy, and teltaps
Resignation and reconsideration
Sitting on the promotion boards
Working with allies - Foreign leaders and the CIA
The routine and the critical
Spy gear and technical services
Slouching towards mediocrity
When all is said and done.
