FILE 009 - CIA's First Line of Defense: Security Protective Officers

CIA is known as America's first line of defense - but who
protects CIA? On this episode, Dee and Walter sit down with a
member of CIA's protective service - the unit charged with
keeping CIA personnel and facilities safe. They'll discuss what
it takes to qualify for that team, the training its officers
undergo, and the importance of not calling a day "quiet" until
it's over.
